Sobre nosotros

The Ricky Rubio Foundation aids in the fight against lung cancer, assists youth, and supports the community through programs and campaigns both in the United States and Spain. LUNG CANCER Through digital awareness campaigns,the foundation concentrates its efforts to educate the public about lung cancer, a disease unjustifiably stigmatized by cigarette smoking. AT-RISK YOUTH rograms, the foundation provides atrisk youth with an education and tools to navigate their daily life, both physically and emotionally, as they mature into adulthood. INTELLECTUALLY DISABLED YOUTH Ricky as ambassador of Unified Basketball, a Special Olympic tournament that join intellectually disabled and abled youth, supports the normalization of intellectually disabled youth and their access to sports. Message from Ricky : " Since I started playing basketball, I have always thought about how to leverage professional sports to help others and how to have an impact on the greater community. I had always tossed around the idea of starting a foundation until the decision to act became clear. My mother was diagnosed with lung cancer in the summer of 2012. The following four years were some of my hardest. In one of my last conversations with my mom, I promised her that I would do everything in my power to help others. Vulnerable children and youth is one of my focuses since I feel strongly about helping them grow and integrate into society in a healthy manner. The other objective of my foundation is the fight against lung cancer in terms of both awareness and prevention" "What makes this foundation different is that you can help and participate however you feel comfortable. This can take the shape of new ideas if you have them, cakes if you are baker, smiles if you are happy, or donations if you can afford to – all is welcome. I hope, from the bottom of my heart, that you join us on this journey, where together, we work to put a smile on kid."
