Community Voices: Our Continued Support, April 2022

As part of our continued efforts to support our community and our commitment to be better allies, we’re proud to lend our platform each week to individuals seeking change. Each week we welcome a new guest on our Instagram to help us speak to these important issues, and profile a charitable organization of their choosing that is making an impact. Starting in June 2020, we’ve gained a lot of momentum, and have hosted dozens of guests. Now, nearly 2 years in, almost 100 guests featured and organizations funded, we’re proud to keep the energy going. Below are some of the amazing guests who have joined us so far in April 2022:

Episode 96: Davion Mitchell

The Point Guard for the @sacramentokings joined us to talk about the importance of having extra-curricular activities available to children in inner city communities. He also discussed how his hometown helped him get where he is today, and the important part that his childhood team, @stars_eybl, played in shaping his future.
