Caitlin Clark has made plenty of headlines this season thanks to her play on the court in what is her rookie season for the Indiana Fever.
However, the WNBA star is also doing what she can to make sure that future generations are looked after as well courtesy of the Caitlin Clark Foundation.
What is the Caitlin Clark Foundation?
The Caitlin Clark Foundation is committed to providing food, clothes, sports gear and more to Iowa youth and communities.
Clark is passionate about supporting young adults in their pursuit of excellence, both on and off the court. Through initiatives such as educational programs, sports camps, food drives, clothing and gear donations, and community outreach, the foundation aims to make a positive impact in the lives of youth.
Beginning in 2022, the foundation is handled by Clark herself, as well as Mary Coffin, Caitlin’s brother Blake and mother Anne Nizzi-Clark.
Just last November, Clark donated winter gear worth $13,000 with the Boys and Girls Clubs in Central Iowa the beneficiaries.
Clark also extended a personal donation of $22,000, along with a $35,000 donation to the club at the record-breaking 60th Anniversary Gala.
Supermarket chain Hy-Vee, in partnership with the foundation, helps with the nutritional side of things. Under the Fuel Up Campaign, the company launched a new cereal called Caitlin’s Crunch Time.
It will be available at select outlets in Iowa, with 100 percent of the proceeds being for the welfare of the Caitlin Clark Foundation.
There is also the Stock Up Campaign, an annual donation initiative inspired by Clark’s No.22 jersey as it looked to collect $22,000. Instead, $25,000 was raised, while in 2020 the foundation received donations close to $77,000.
