About the Steve Nash Foundation

About the Foundation
Formed in 2001, given U.S. charitable status in 2004, and Canadian charitable status in 2007, the Steve Nash Foundation is a private foundation dedicated to assisting underserved children in their health, personal development, education and enjoyment of life. Like its NBA MVP founder, the Foundation is fast becoming a leader in assists . . . to a slightly shorter population.

Through our own initiatives, and through grants to public service and nonprofit entities in British Columbia, the Foundation aims to grow health in kids by funding projects that provide direct services to children affected by poverty, illness, abuse, or neglect, and create opportunity for education, health, and empowerment. We love the opportunity to get involved in the good work being done by child-focused ngo's in our home province.

The Foundation also seeks to afford thoughtful solutions to community needs through our own projects to address critical health and education needs. The Foundation focuses its resources on underserved populations of children in British Columbia, Arizona, and the country of Paraguay. Equipping a neonatal intensive care ward in Asuncion to provide basic necessities for infants and their families, developing an early childhood education center of excellence to bring best practices to young kids that don't always enjoy that access in Arizona, and uniting civic outreach, corporate and social service organizations to show kids how to get involved in their communities are examples of the daily work of the Foundation's small but dedicated staff. Stemming from our first ever Steve Nash Foundation Charity Classic, held in Toronto, Ontario, in 2005, the Foundation is also working closely with the City to establish an all-access, all-kids after-school center there to build hope through hoops for kids.

While our work focuses exclusively on child welfare, we believe that corporations must share responsibility for the well-being of our communities. The Foundation employs and encourages environmentally-friendly office practices, and offers grantees assistance in developing their own recycling and energy conservation programs (check out our Green Leaf here). We also like to highlight the important work of other individuals and organizations, using our website links to increase their exposure, and contribute to their efforts. Further, we are proud to be working with young people that excel in their chosen fields, from whom we welcome energetic leadership and fresh voices.

I wonder if Michael Jordan knows he's making heels? – by LiVEFASDiEYUNG (Bernard Odom)

Michael Jordan Trivia!
Michael Jackson and Michael Jordan’s prime were in the 80′s the 90′s.

Michael Jackson was the king of pop and Michael Jordan was the king of basketball.

The both share the same the same first name and same initials.

Could it be possible that the success of these two men in the same era, indirectly helped each other’s fame and success more than we realize?

Answer by Gina
Not sure about that, but MJ will forever be alive in the memories of his fans. I shall love him till the end of the world. Music is universal. I don’t care whether he’s black or white. MJ’s music is colourless, which is why he is so popular all over the world. I would forever remember Michael Jackson for his moonwalk and the charity work that he did, and the fact that he is an extremely talented musician who wrote and composed almost all of his songs. Michael Jackson was no ordinary man, he’s a superhero. He broke 13 Guinness world records, contributed to 36 charities and won 19 grammys in his lifetime. He’s a pop legend, who should be ranked alongside stars like Elvis Presley and John Lennon. On top of that, he should be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his humanitarian efforts. MJ is the BEST forever! Nobody would be able to replace him as the next King of Pop. He is not a paedophile. It’s the media that paints him to be. He just loves children because he himself is a child at heart. I can’t seem to get enough of MJ, his face, his voice, his dance moves.

I love all his songs, but the most memorable has to be Childhood, which is a rather sad song that kind of reflect his thoughts about his own childhood.

R.I.P Michael
