I prefer 1 or 2 colors.  A shade of green would be appropriate, a second color should be white, black, second shade of green, or grey.  No shading.  The words "Soccer Hope" is required, additional wording could include "Giving Opportunities".  A soccer ball (traditional hexagon shape is preferred)  graphic would be preferred, but open to other ideas as it relates to soccer.  I have seen a heart where a soccer ball makes the top curve on one side of the heart, which looked promising.  I also have seen half a ball that fades with dots and not shading was also cool.  A heart symbolizing our charitable side or another symbol would be fine.  If you use a human figure, I prefer outlined or filled in and not with facial or clothing details.  It must be gender neutral.  Our recipients will be very diverse, so even an international feel would be OK.  I do not like crest of arms which actual soccer clubs prefer.  

Was very responsive and intuitive in redesigns.
