Porzingis Family Foundation

Kristaps Porzingis spent some time with dozens of young basketball players at the Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem, New York, to announce that he’d be donating $500 to the RENS, a not-for-profit hoops program, for every shot he blocks this season. Porzingis' donations will be earmarked for the Ben Jobe Educational and Scholarship Fund, which provides tutoring and SAT prep for students and tuition money for Catholic, private and prep schools.
