Emirates, in collaboration with the NBA, has unveiled a renovated space at the Boys and Girls Club of Oklahoma County. This initiative is part of the NBA Cares Finals Legacy Projects and Emirates' broader effort to contribute positively to communities across the United States.
The newly refurbished "Wonder Room" was introduced during a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by representatives from Emirates, the NBA, and players from the Oklahoma City Thunder. The event also included youth from the Boys and Girls Club who will benefit from this new facility. Key figures present were Adam Silver, NBA Commissioner; Mark Tatum, NBA Deputy Commissioner and Chief Operating Officer; Kathy Behrens, NBA President Social Responsibility & Player Programs; and Matthew Jones, Emirates’ VP-USA.
The Boys and Girls Clubs of Oklahoma County offer after-school programs for children to engage in extracurricular activities. Over its 30-year history, it has expanded significantly to serve more than 17,000 young people annually through its 16 clubs.
