Kevin Durant to Open 'The Durant Center' After-School Educational Facility in His Hometown

Golden State small forward Kevin Durant will open "The Durant Center" on Wednesday– a new facility in his hometown of Prince George County, Md. that is aimed at helping low-income and underserved students enroll and graduate from college.

The after-school center will open with an inaugural class of 69 local students, who will be offered various academic, financial and social-emotional resources to aid college and career development. The center was created in partnership with College Track, an organization that uses a 10-year plan to help students from their early teenage years through college graduation by providing tutoring services and funds for college scholarships.
