Luol Deng Foundation

Luol Deng started his foundation focusing on basketball camps for youth in South Sudan and the U.K. Over time, Luol realized that the foundation couldn't just be about basketball, but could use basketball as a tool to help with bringing attention to other important issues.
"We see ourselves as a foundation that gives an opportunity to all these people to better their lives. I always want to tell people that we are not a basketball foundation - we're about helping the people and giving them a better opportunity, a better life." - Luol Deng
The Luol Deng Foundation mission centers on empowering youth to realize their limitless potential through sport and development.
