VIP EVENT “CHARITIES UNITE PDX” – PRIVATE HANGAR PARTY AT THE OREGON INTERNATIONAL AIR SHOW

The first annual Charities Unite PDX event held on September 28, 2018 was a huge success! This special private hangar air show event united us with Self Enhancement, Inc. and Brian Grant Foundation to raise awareness and support of our programs. Big thanks to the owners of the hangar and philanthropists Sue and Steve Larson and title sponsors V&B Philanthropy, Jeanette E. Heinz and Howard Hedinger for your support. We’re already looking forward to next year!

About the Foundation

The foundation is named in honor of Maurice Lucas (1952-2010), the starting forward on the 1977 NBA champion Portland Trail Blazers team. Besides his outstanding achievements on the court, Lucas also gave selflessly of his time and energy to Portland youth. The Maurice Lucas Foundation focuses on middle school kids in the Portland metro area. The foundation teaches life lessons through sport. After school programs, sports camps and outings change the lives of the youths who participate. Since its formation, 436 students have successfully completed the foundation’s academies and hundreds of others have participated in its sports programs.

Just wanted to tell you that in our counsel session today the boys had many useful insights today, just good touchstones about how to lead your life. The counselor was very impressed with their maturity and asked them where they had learned the things they were referencing. Each time, they said, “Oh, we talked about it in ML.” Thanks to you and everyone at ML. Truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. It takes a village! And we’re lucky to be in such a great village.”
