Golden State Warriors basketball player Steph Curry teamed up with Liberty University and the “Kick’n It” foundation to raise awareness and collect 20,000 shoes for children in the Republic of the Congo last week.
Local news station WSLS10 reported that the basketball player is helping to secure large donations like his basketball sponsor, Under Armor. The athletic brand donated 1,000 pairs of children’s shoes in honor of the athlete’s efforts.
The inspirational campaign started several months ago after Liberty Union graduate student Emmanuel Ntibonera’s expressed his desire to donate 30,000 pairs of shoes to his home country, the Republic of the Congo.
