MJ Helps The Boys And Girls Club

The Boys and Girls Club received a $500,000 check from Jordan Brand, which is a division of Nike. Michael Jordan, Carmelo Anthony, and Chris Paul joined community leaders and youth in New Orleans for a dedication ceremony.
This was a necessary donation as the Slidell Boys and Girls Club was damaged in Hurricane Katrina.
“The Boys’ and Girls’ Clubs of America has been a visible contributor to the families and children of New Orleans, during and post Hurricane Katrina,” said Jordan. “Slidell is a community that has been somewhat overlooked in recovery efforts, and we are proud to aid with its rebuilding and leave a lasting legacy for the community.”
It’s nice to know that people haven’t put New Orleans off their radar.
