NBA star John Wall is still reeling from the sting of criticism he received when he wasted $20K on a painting of himself.
To redeem himself, the Wizards star generously donated $400,000 of his NBA salary to Bright Beginnings homeless shelter in Washington, D.C.
Bright Beginnings Executive Director, Dr. Betty Jo Gaines announced the donation on the charity’s Facebook Page.
This morning, Washington Wizards point guard, John Wall surprised our organization and BBI Executive Director, Dr. Betty Jo Gaines with a generous donation of $400,000. This phenomenal contribution will significantly impact the development of Bright Beginnings’ second child development center at 3418 4th Street SE in Ward 8.
“Support from individuals like Mr. Wall, gives Bright Beginnings the encouragement to continue to provide comprehensive services for homeless children in the District of Columbia. It is evident that John Wall is sensitive and concerned about the plight of homeless children in DC and he wants theses children to succeed.”
I don’t know about the rest of y’all, but John is redeemed in my eyes.
