TONIGHT'S QUOTE

January is National Mentoring Month
Mentoring guarantees young people that there is someone who cares about them, assures them they are not alone in dealing with day-to-day challenges, and makes them feel like they matter.
TONIGHT’S MATCH OF THE GAME
Brian and Armondo Brian and 12-year-old Armondo have been matched for more than 6 years through Friends of the Children, a local nonprofit that utilizes professional paid mentors to support local youth.

The Trail Blazers are dedicated to positively impacting the lives of children and families who have been historically underserved, where they live, learn and play. We support children and families in our region by providing resources to high quality, impactful nonprofit organizations providing critical services in Oregon and SW Washington. Throughout the 2016-17 season, Trail Blazers Inc. & Trail Blazers Foundation successfully gave $1.59 million of in-kind donations and $950,501 in grant dollars to local communities.
The Trail Blazers believe our home court extends far beyond the arena and everything we do in our lives makes an impact. We encourage fans to join us in our efforts to protect our planet and our community to ensure a brighter future for generations to come.
The Trail Blazers strive to ensure that every child has the opportunity to graduate from high school. We support youth in hitting the key benchmarks that ensure this achievement through their education.
The Trail Blazers work to create opportunities where youth are active every day, have access to learn and play basketball, and have positive coaches in their lives.
