FEATURE: Chris Wondolowski hosts soccer camp to benefit Camp Fire victims; participant’s father reveals heartwarming story

San Jose Earthquakes forward Chris Wondolowski hosted a soccer camp from Dec. 13-15 at Pleasant Valley High School in Chico, Calif., benefiting victims of the destructive Camp Fire. The soccer camp was free for victims of the Camp Fire, while other participants were asked to make a donation towards the North Valley Community Foundation. In total, the camp was attended by more than 100 kids and raised nearly $7,000.

Wondolowski and his former Chico State teammates led soccer drills and gave young players advice to take their game to the next level. After all, Wondolowski, who needs just two more goals to become Major League Soccer’s all-time leading scorer, has the humblest of roots in the sport.
