Coronavirus: Steph Curry’s foundation to help feed out-of-school students

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has impacted sports figures and everyday people alike.

Steph Curry and the Warriors were sent home after the NBA season was indefinitely suspended Wednesday. On Friday, the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) joined many others in doing the same with its students.

There are over 18,000 students within the OUSD that rely on their school for at least two meals per day. With school no longer in session, there is a huge void to fill. Curry and his wife, Ayesha, announced Friday night that they are attempting to help do so.

Oakland is closing schools bc of COVID-19.

The Currys, through their foundation, Eat.Learn.Play., are donating to the Alameda Food Bank to help serve the displaced students, and they're inviting you to join them in the cause.

"We're trying to do our part," Steph said. "Hopefully you can join the fight with us and have each other's backs as we go through this uncertain time in our community."
