Jrue Holiday
Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday and his wife, Olympic gold medalist Lauren Holiday, announced a $1 million commitment to Black-led nonprofit organizations and Black-owned businesses in several metro areas, including Milwaukee.
The Holidays on Monday opened the second round of applications for their social impact fund, the JLH Fund, following their first round of grant distribution last fall. Jrue has pledged $5.3 million from his 2019-’20 NBA salary to establish the fund.
The new, $1 million grant round will support the greater Milwaukee, New Orleans, Indianapolis and Los Angeles areas. Priority will be given to organizations focused on social impact and creating a more equitable future for underserved communities, the Holidays said.
