The
Jordan
Brand Classic is more than just a basketball game. The event
provides an opportunity for the athletes to give back to the community.
Along with the events held in conjunction with the Jordan Fundamentals
program, a portion of the proceeds go to supporting The Children’s Aid
Society. The Jordan Brand Classic is committed to the New York city and
surrounding community.
Jordan
Brand Fundamentals
The
Jordan Fundamentals Grant Program was established in 1999 to recognize
outstanding teaching and instructional creativity in public secondary
schools that serve economically disadvantaged students. The program is
enabled by the Jordan Brand, a division of NIKE, Inc., and administered
by COMPASS Consulting, a private non-profit educational consulting
firm, helping schools and communities develop more effective and
equitable interventions, approaches and systems to improve student
results. For more information, please
