Additionally, a commendable $10,000 check was also given to Circle of Brotherhood, a Miami-based organization primarily composed of Black men from diverse backgrounds, united in their dedication to community service, economic development, crime prevention, conflict resolution, educational services, and youth mentorship.
At 9:30 am, participating golfers took to the fairway for the We The Best Foundation X Jordan Brand Golf Classic.
