We, at Molten USA, believe in the amazing power of sport and play. At the foundation of our company is a tremendous desire to spread this joy to people and athletes of all ages and abilities. We know that sport and play can motivate, inspire, and change us at our core. With this commitment at the forefront, Molten has launched its Give Joy initiative which encompasses numerous programs committed to this simple goal.

One of the newest elements of Molten's Give Joy initiative is the Pass It Forward program. Through this program we hope to connect and inspire our online community of friends and athletes to continue our mission of spreading the joy of sport and play throughout the world.

The program includes an interactive website where participants are encouraged to interact after receiving a Pass it Forward volleyball, basketball, or soccer ball. Each ball is printed with the instructions: Play with it, Post about it, Pass it on! It is our hope that these balls will 1) encourage kids to be active, 2) encourage interaction and a dynamic online community, 3) inspire our youth through teaching the value of giving.

Join the movement and help us spread the power of sport and play through the joy of giving. Apply for your team or organization to participate in the Pass it Forward program! Still have questions? Visit our FAQ's or send us an email at connect@moltenusa.com.
