Developed by the NBA Coaches Association in partnership with the Boys and Girls Club of America and NBA Cares, the “NBA Coaches for Kids” will allow the NBA Coaches Association, NBA GM's and the Athletic Trainers Association to give back to their communities, and promote the sport to deserving NBA fans of the future. "Coaches for Kids" will raise $15 million over 15+ seasons for the Boys & Girls Clubs, and be a part of the NBA Cares program. Money raised will be donated directly to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America.
