Paul Kato is the founder of KITA (otherwise known as the Kato international training academy) which is an organization that provides education and soccer coaching to youth in Nigeria. Paul moved from Nigeria to the United States as a young boy and has been involved in soccer his whole life. He played 4 years of college soccer at Spring Arbor University before playing professionally in the indoor leagues across the United States. He is currently a teacher at Mason High School in Michigan, and has spent the past 10 years working on his KITA project. Paul's story is incredibly inspiring and I encourage anyone that has an interest or would like to help to reach out to the organization online.
