Kyrie Irving and his KAI Family Foundation are putting together a consulting firm to help underrepresented entrepreneurs, according to Marc J. Spears of “The Undefeated.”
“We must give our people the proper resources and stewardship for them to win beyond traditional investment vehicles,” Irving said. “This is not only essential to closing the wealth gap, but it also fosters a more unified, empowered, and liberated society.”
This is just one of the many things Irving has done to give back, as he bought a home for George Floyd’s family, set up a fund to help WNBA players who couldn’t participate in the Brandenton “wubble” and paid the tuition of nine Lincoln University students, among many other generous donations.
