NBA legend Michael Jordan, a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame in the United States, made headlines by making a record donation of $10 million to the Make-A-Wish America Foundation to celebrate his number birthday. 60, according to the announcement made by the same organization this Wednesday.
It must be taken into account that said donation made by Jordan is the largest donation that an individual has given to the entity in its 43-year history. In addition, it is known that Michael Jordan made this delivery of money in order to inspire other people to support Make-A-Wish.
“For Michael to use his birthday as an opportunity to make history with Make-A-Wish speaks to the quality of his character and his loyal dedication to improving the lives of critically ill children,” said Leslie Motter, president and CEO of Make-A-Wish America. “We hope the public will be inspired to follow in his footsteps by helping make wishes come true,” she added.
Without a doubt, this is a great action on the part of Jordan, owner of the Charlotte Hornets of the NBA at present, something that did not take away the habit of supporting him, since he did it for the first time, at least to Make-A- Wish, in 1989.
