I recently had the honor of being one of four artists to paint a custom jersey for the sixteenth annual Heroes Gala! The themes for the art were based on the four pillars of their foundation: Military Care, Hunger, Education, and Wellness. I was assigned WELLNESS.
Mindfulness and yoga have played a big part in my own wellness journey, so I ended up with a piece I call, “Vinyasa with Hugo” 😆🐝🧘🏀
Shout out to .ninatran for this incredible opportunity!!!
• The Wellness pillar of the Charlotte Hornets Foundation is focused on promoting health and well-being within the Charlotte-Mecklenburg community. This pillar emphasizes the importance of physical fitness, mental health, and overall wellness, particularly among underserved populations. The foundation partners with local healthcare providers, fitness organizations, and wellness advocates to offer programs and resources that encourage healthy lifestyles. Initiatives under this pillar include free health screenings, fitness challenges, and educational workshops on nutrition and mental health. The foundation also works to improve access to healthcare services for those who may not have the means to afford them. By prioritizing wellness, the foundation aims to foster a community where individuals can lead healthier, happier lives and have the support they need to maintain their well-being.
