Never underestimate the heart of a champion, especially when it comes to doing good off the court.

That’s why it’s no surprise that Toronto Raptors superstar Pascal Siakam once again partnered with Penny Appeal Canada to donate 150 laptops to students earlier this week.

The 28-year-old’s efforts alongside the organization, which helps with charitable causes across the globe, are in support of the #CodingforChampions initiative, which aims to close the digital divide and improve technological accessibility for lower income areas.

Siakam attended the event in Toronto’s Regency Park neighbourhood alongside a PS43 themed tour bus, personally handing out laptops to the group of all-girl students.
