Luol Deng Foundation
The Luol Deng Foundation creates pathways to opportunity through sport and development. Through sport, we build character and instill a sense of belonging. Through education, we empower young people to go further. Through wellness, we secure people’s most urgent needs. Through equality, we ensure these opportunities are for everyone.
We believe youth are the key to transforming our country and our world. Because that’s what young people do.
