During the offseason, NBA players continue to travel the globe to host community outreach and philanthropic work. Working in partnership with community organizations and NGOs, players have given back to communities worldwide, including their hometowns, with projects ranging from funding job skills training for at-risk youth to spending time with children at orphanages. By using the game of basketball as a tool for social change, these player trips have provided people worldwide with a once-in-a-lifetime experience while providing resources and relief for tomorrow.
