Thanksgiving Food Drive
Family meals are vital for children’s well-being and development. Help us provide Thanksgiving dinners to families in need. This year, we aim to supply 250 full meals, but we need your support. Partner with family and friends to help gather essential items.
School Food Pantry
Rudy’s Kids Foundation and Smith’s Food are teaming up with Salt Lake Education Foundation to open a food pantry at Northwest Middle School. Approximately 86% of the student body are living below the poverty line (including 30 homeless students).
We are truly blessed to have Rudy Gobert’s leadership and vision guiding your efforts. The world indeed needs more compassionate leaders like him. Together, we are making a meaningful difference in the lives of many children.
From this basketball team to dozens of other groups, Rudy’s Kids helps children see their own potential. It has also helped us fulfill our mission of providing equitable access for our most vulnerable youth to experiences that inspire hope, dreams, and success.
Our son JP has been fighting cancer on and off since 2012. We first met Rudy in 2014 when JP, who was five years old at the time, played in a scrimmage with the Utah Jazz. Rudy lifted him up for a slam dunk and sealed their friendship.
Rudy and I share a vision for change, and I’m honored to have had the privilege of collaborating with Rudy on impactful projects that support children in Utah. Through initiatives like Rudy’s Kids, we aim to make a lasting impact on young lives
We are so grateful to Rudy’s Kids for helping us bring this project to life, keeping our pantry well-stocked, and for its continued support of this exciting and important community resource.
