NBA Cares is the league's social responsibility program that builds on the NBA's long tradition of addressing important social issues in the United States and around the world. Since its 2005 launch, the league and teams have raised more than $220 million for charity, donated more than 2.5 million hours of hands-on volunteer service to communities around the world, and built more than 810 places where kids and families can live, learn and play.
In the summer of 2013, Nothing But Nets Champion and Golden State Warrior Stephen Curry joined the Nothing But Nets campaign on a trip to Tanzania to donate bed nets in a refugee camp. They distributed 38,000 bed nets and helped raise awareness about Malaria.
Steph Curry is among many celebrity supporters who advocate for NBA Cares.
