Sacramento Kings and Black Lives Matter Sacramento Join Build. Black. Coalition to Help Transform Sacramento Communities By Investing in Black Youth

SACRAMENTO, CA – The Sacramento Kings is proud to announce that it is partnering with the Build. Black. Coalition and Black Lives Matter Sacramento in an unprecedented effort to fundamentally transform Black communities through deep investment in Black youth in Sacramento.

As part of their commitment to the goals of the Build. Black. Coalition, a group of Sacramento community leaders who have organized in the wake of the Stephon Clark shooting, a tragic death of a young man by Sacramento police, the Sacramento Kings will create an education fund for the children of Stephon Clark. This fund cannot fix the issues that led to the death of their father, but it will secure opportunities for their futures while the family and the city grapples with healing.
