Curry, his wife Ayesha Curry and longtime Davidson College supporters Don, Matt and Erica Berman will also start an eight-figure fund for both the men and women's programs. Matt Berman, who played soccer for three seasons at Davidson as a member of the 2005 class, will serve as another assistant GM. "The Davidson experience is top notch," Curry said in a statement released by the school. "My journey from when I got to Davidson in 2006 to now demonstrated that I had the opportunity to play basketball at the highest level, got a great education, an amazing network through the Davidson alumni and continue to wave the Davidson flag. I want very talented, high character student athletes to have that same experience."

A young girl from Madison Park Academy approached Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry’s wife, eager to offer appreciation during the 12th annual “Christmas with the Currys” event “Are you Ayesha Curry?” the young girl asked. “I was like, ‘yes.’ And she was like, ‘I ate your meals at my soccer program,’ ” Ayesha Curry told Andscape. “And I was like, ‘Oh.’ She’s like, ‘I really like the burritos.’ And just the fact that she had the awareness of where the food was coming from and just the thought to be a kid and be like, ‘Hey, thank you,’ … one, it’s a very heartwarming, appreciated. But also, I hate the thought of a child having to have that wherewithal or that knowledge of the fact that they needed to get a meal to go to soccer. But we do encounter that all the time… “I would say it happens more often than I think we realized it would happen. Whether it’s a family that went to a particular school that we touched, or a teacher who says that we impacted her classroom in the way that he or she is able to go about their curriculum and teach their students. Or we’ve even run into some people who are on staff at some of the schools and they’re like, ‘I went to school there and I went through the program and I graduated and I came back and I see the change. So, thank you.’ So that’s been interesting as well. And then today was really cool, heartwarming, but also, it’s what always adds fuel to my fire of wanting to do more.”

Through their Eat. Learn. Play. program, the Currys stunned more than 200 Oakland students at Madison Park Academy with their presence at a holiday celebration that included painting, a petting zoo, food, a bounce house and an appearance by the Warriors girls and their deejay D-Sharp. During the event, Eat. Learn. Play. announced its newest initiative to renovate elementary school libraries throughout Oakland Unified School District, beginning in 2025 with Madison Park Academy. The program is also renovating the playground at the elementary school.

The Currys started Eat. Learn. Play. in 2019 with the aim of improving the lives of children and families, primarily in Oakland. The focus has been on giving every child in need access to nutritious food, resources to learn and enjoy reading, and safe and beautiful places to engage in physical fitness. Five years into the Oakland-based program, the Currys see the dividends of their beloved labor paying off, as evidenced by the young girl’s appreciation.

“Just trying to bring joy to the kids in a lot of different ways, not only with the resources that they get, the take homes that they get, the books that they get, but just for them to have just a fun oasis for however long they get to spend going to all the different stations and just for them to get immersed in it and be present,” Stephen Curry said. “So, we’ve seen the joy and the smiles and the laughter, the sounds from the kids, the feedback from the teachers on how much this means for their kids to be able to express themselves that way, the volunteers to come to actually see their person and the work that they put in and what it means for that reaction from all the kids. All of it matters. And it’s just joy through the holiday season for sure. And it’s the 12th year doing it. So, we want to keep going… “Then for the results to kind of show up — with all the places that we’ve been able to refurbish, the goals even for next year, the amount of schools we’ve been able to touch, the amount of books we’ve been able to put in kids’ hands, the amount of meals that’ve been able to go out the door — all of it is truly powerful. And you feel the love from people who have been touched by it.”

Golden State guard Stephen Curry knew he was running out of chances to play in what would be his first Olympics, so he and his wife Ayesha started planning many months ago about how to make the Paris Games work for their family. Their growing family, that is. Ayesha Curry revealed in March that she is pregnant with the couple’s fourth child and the baby is due in June. That’s not entirely by accident; the couple thought ahead with hopes of keeping the Olympic months of July and August clear — just in case. “We thought about it ahead of time, which was nice,” Curry said. “If the timing didn’t work at a certain month in the fall, we actually would have made a different decision knowing the Olympics were on the radar. So, thankfully, the Lord looked out for us and if everything goes to plan, I’ll be available this summer.”
