Our Dribble Out Hunger Campaign
|
2018 gave life to the Dribble Out Hunger Campaign. The Ricky Davis Legacy Foundation has joined with Brothers Produce and several other organizations in efforts to promote health and wellness to those in homeless and disadvantaged communities. The goal is to provide fresh produce, toiletries, and additional essentials to those in need and in homeless environments.
Beginning season 2 of the Big 3, the foundation started in Houston, Texas and traveled to several other cities like Chicago, Oakland, Detroit, Toronto, Boston, Atlanta, Dallas, Miami, and New York during Ricky summer season, giving and reaching out to local organizations visited to ultimately be a ray of hope and put a smile on the faces of families in the communities. Summer 2019 during Season 3 of the Big 3, in addition to our Dribble Out Hunger Campaign. We will begin the Legacy Youth Health Fairs, geared towards awareness of oral hygiene and promoting annual physicals for youth. #Dribbleouthunger #RDLegacyhealthFair |

Barber Marcus Williams provided fresh cuts to those attending the events through out the summer and offering a fresh new outlook into the future, giving advice while young and old were in his chair. Even Big 3 Owner Ice Cube came out in support of what Ricky was doing in the community. We at the TRDLF will never forget the looks on the kids faces as he bb bh walked through the door. This Summer was nothing short of amazing!
The Foundation aim is to provide resources to the communities whether it to the homeless community or to those just needing an extra hand. The Dribble Out Hunger campaign was coined by Edward Davis-Lead Coordinator who devoted his time to making these events go off with out a hitch!
