Jordan Brand Makes $100,000 Donation
Posted in: Uncategorized
Jordan Brand, a division of Nike, made a $100,000 donation to the Make-A-Wish foundation. But that was not all. A sidelight was also granting the wish of a couple of teenagers to watch the upcoming NBA All-Star game in Phoenix.
Jordan Brand teamed up with the Make-A-Wish Foundation to grant two deserving teenagers their fondest wishes; the chance to attend the All-Star game and its weekend of festivities as well as meet Michael Jordan and All-Star Team Jordan athlete Chris Paul.
Jordan, the newly appointed Chief Wish Ambassador for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, enhanced the teens’ wishes with a surprise appearance during a special luncheon where Jordan Brand executives presented the Foundation with a check for $100,000.
“These kids are incredibly brave and their stories are beyond inspiring,” said Michael Jordan. “On behalf of the Jordan Brand, our Team Jordan athletes and myself, we’d like to thank the Make-A-Wish Foundation for providing us with the opportunity to make wishes come true for these amazing children and their supportive families.”
