See this is the difference in mindsets between a cat like Magic and a Barkley, one puts his money where his mouth is the other just puts another corndog there. Lets turn this to a magic appreciation thread

Serious question, would crowdfunding for innercity at risk youth be something people would donate to?

Bron and Kobe should be doing this when they retire

Something that house ninja Barkley would never do


Magic and Lebron might be my fav NBA players personality wise, I could see them both being on that Muhammad ALI tip if they were both in the spotlight during the 1960s


Black excellence



AI tho >>>>

Great, let's hope that money is actually used properly.

Investing in young at risk youth is not blowing money for one. And I'm neither magics or chucks accountant so I couldn't answer that fam, but chuck is in a position where he could really make power moves to positively affect the black community but we instead mostly hear his c00n rhetoric. I'm not one who says who should do what with their bread, but I do notice who is about that action and change and who is looking for a pat on the head from the powers that be.

Former Bulls Star Michael Jordan puts his name and money behind a major fundraising campaign at Hales Franciscan High School. The school hopes to raise $15 million and is about halfway there. Jordan donated $5 million. He said he became involved after seeing the students and the commitment of the alumni.


The Chicago high school is one of just three in the U.S. built for African American males.

Gave 5M to an all black male high school on the south side.
