All participants in the Technology Summit and their families attending All-Star will have the opportunity to join our NBA Cares All-Star Day of Service, that will build upon the NBA’s commitment to create places around the world where children and families can live, learn or play. We will partner with local non-profit organizations to create projects that will aid needy communities in Phoenix. Each project will be unique but they will all incorporate similar tasks, such as painting, cleaning, and general refurbishment. You will be able to register at the Summit and choose from (3) different projects. The projects we've planned will accommodate volunteers of all ages and skill levels.
