Caitlin Clark is very close to organizations, in 2024 she announced that her foundation would work hand in hand with Scholastic to promote children’s literacy, something that generated a good reaction.
All the details on this great initiative
The Caitlin Clark Foundation has partnered with Scholastic to donate 22,000 books to students in Iowa and Indiana. This initiative comes after Caitlin Clark was deeply influenced by reading and education, and the Indiana player wanted them to have the same taste as she did:
“I remember picking out the books from the Scholastic flyer and how empowering that was for me as a child, and how motivated I was to read. I want to help kids have the same experience,” she said in a release.
The books will go to elementary schools, high schools, children’s hospitals and other nonprofit organizations.
The controversy
Arielle Chambers, a woman who has always been an advocate for women’s sports, posted on X: “The WNBA is very important,” citing information about the book donation from Caitlin Clark’s foundation.
That post was enough to set social media ablaze, and the responses were immediate.
“Question what the WNBA got to do with Caitlin Clark foundation.”
“No offense. But what does Clark’s book donation and her foundation have to do with the WNBA? The money Clark earned to be able to do this was not from the W and that paltry salary they pay.”
“giving the wnba credit for something Caitlin is doing herself?”
These were some of the comments read in the reply section, but it wasn’t all bad, other people stepped up to defend Ari from the attacks.
Unfortunately, few mentioned Caitlin‘s great work for a matter of interpretation of the post, but the truth is that it is to be applauded what the Indiana Fever player does for young people and that charm for reading that she wants to integrate them.
