Donors included Martell Webster’s MW 23 Foundation, Brandon Roy, and Nate McMillan. MW 23 Foundation was created in 2009 by Martell Webster, #23, lead shooting guard for the Portland Trail Blazers. The foundation was created to help low-income youth and families.

The MW23 Foundation will collaborate with other non-profit organizations to provide basic needs, to enhance academic support, and to offer athletic opportunities for youth and families to increase the high school graduation rate.
The Portland Trail Blazers believe life is more than a game, which is the reason we work as passionately in the community as we do on the court. The Make it Better Fund, established in partnership with the Oregon Community Foundation, brings the team together with our fans to make life-changing assists that directly impact the lives of children in Oregon and southwest Washington where they live, learn and play.
