Chris Paul and Chase spread holiday cheer to 500 children from various community organizations in Los Angeles including LA.’s Best After School Enrichment Program, and Watts-Willowbrook Boys & Girls Club by hosting a shopping spree at three Target locations on December 19. Each child was given a $100 gift card to do their Christmas shopping, with one rule, to buy at least one gift for someone else. In addition to the shopping spree for the kids, four military families received funds to help them as they transition into permanent housing.
The initiative was part of the Chris Paul Family Foundation, a non-profit organization that strives to positively impact individuals and families by leveling the playing field in education, sports and life.The foundation provides resources that enrich and strengthen healthy development of strong communities.
