Redwood City, California, USA, Oct. 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- My New Red Shoes (MNRS) is pleased to announce the Gordon Family Giving Foundation as the presenting sponsor of CommUNITY , a virtual event supporting youth, family and community empowerment, to be held on Saturday, October 10, 2020.
“Aaron Gordon and his family are passionate about My New Red Shoes mission of helping low income and underrepresented Bay Area youth thrive. Recognizing that equal justice is a basic requirement for all children to be successful, we are excited to continue and deepen our partnership with MNRS as we take on this challenge together.”
In partnership with Aaron Gordon, Dove Men+Care and the NBPA will be donating product to help MNRS meet the immediate critical community needs of children and youth in the San Francisco Bay Area.
This is one of the many efforts that Aaron, the NBPA and Dove Men+Care are taking together with the Commit to C.A.R.E Now initiative. This partnership aims to change the way Black men are seen and treated by creating a world where Black men and boys are cared for, respected, supported, and protected. This includes amplifying the voices and efforts of the players, like Aaron, specifically through his work with organizations like MNRS.
“Joining with Aaron Gordon and having the support of Dove Men+Care and the NBPA in a community-building effort strengthens and expands the impact of our programs, offering a hopeful and inspiring response to the urgent and growing needs families are facing. Our collaboration is aimed at delivering dignity to children and families while working toward positive change and a brighter and more just future,” said Minh Ngo, Executive Director of MNRS.
Amid the public health and economic crisis, vulnerable families have been disproportionately impacted by wildfires. The gaps between young people in our community have become more profound. With rapid changes taking place, MNRS is preparing to meet raising needs, and to shape a more desirable future for all constituents and stakeholders.
“The past seven months have brought tremendous change and uncertainty in all sectors of society. My New Red Shoes has proven resilient and committed to helping drive transformative change through partnerships with exceptional community leaders and corporate partners,” said Joanne Gouaux, Acting Board Chair of MNRS.
