The Jordan WINGS Scholars Program Announces Class Of 2023 Recipients

The Jordan WINGS Scholars Program Announces Class Of 2023 Recipients

For the last half-decade, the Jordan WINGS Scholars Program has been endowing underprivileged youth with full-ride scholarships to college in North America and in Greater China. By erasing any financial burdens, these well-deserving students can go on their own journey of greatness and self-discovery – and it all starts with an education at the higher level. Today, Jordan officially announced the 27 recipients of the WINGS scholarship; this Class of 2023 was selected from a pool of applicants who identify as local leaders in school and in their community, and who also align with the principle of the program.

Michael Jordan himself understood the power of education; the confidence instilled in him by his teachers played a role in his legacy as the greatest basketball of all-time, but ensured that he would complete his college degree. Previously, Jordan Brand released special edition footwear (the Air Jordan 1, Air Jordan 12), with proceeds going directly to the scholarship fund.
