In 2020, Nike committed $140 million towards community organizations over the next decade with a year-round philanthropic approach titled “Future Movement.” As apart of the initiative, the Nike 2023 Nike Men S Lebron 9 Big Bang 2022 Orange Silver-team Orange campaign is dedicated to amplifying the pursuit of communal well-being by Mid five different individuals from the Black community that are actively prioritizing wellness, with Kevin Durant being the campaign’s headliner.
The Phoenix Suns forward has served his community with the Durant Family Foundation, which is the two-time NBA Champion’s journey to wellness. The foundation is guided by the values he’s learned throughout his basketball career, as well as “Black Consciousness” in images and vulnerability.
Just talking about what’s going on in your brain is key. Giving yourself up and having honest, open conversations with people contributes to your wellness.
Kevin Durant
