ORLANDO – Since acquiring the franchise 30 years ago, the DeVos family has put the importance of community at the forefront of every aspect of the Orlando Magic.
From the Magic’s community relations programs to the work done by the Orlando Magic Youth Foundation (OMYF), the franchise has had an immense impact on the Central Florida area on an annual basis. Their desire to give back is even engrained into the fabric of the team’s mission statement of being world champions both “on and off the court.”
That tone was set forth by the late Rich DeVos, who upon acquiring the Magic had one request – please don’t call him the owner.
