Shakira teams up with beau’s Spanish soccer team for charity

Washington, Aug 5 : `Waka Waka' singer Shakira has teamed up with her boyfriend Gerard Pique's Spanish soccer team for a new charity mission.

The 34-year-old star's `Barefoot Foundation' has merged with Pique's club `FC Barcelona', to fund and better support YMCA educational programmes for Hispanic youths in Miami, Florida.

"Hispanics in the United States have everything to gain. We have the talent, we have the will," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

"I truly think that with more education and more sports, we can achieve the unthinkable. We can have the ball on our side of the court," she added. (ANI)
