Sometimes the NBA gets it right.
Peja Stojakovic got it right this time.
New Orleans Hornets forward Peja Stojakovic received an award at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece, for making possible a shipment of wheelchairs to hundreds of disabled people in northern Greece through a partnership with International Orthodox Christian Charities.
“I know I cannot change the world, but I am trying to render good for the talent God gave me,” Stojakovic said.
Wheelchairs are expensive and hard to fit.
The wheelchairs were custom fit to suit the needs of each recipient by a team of volunteer health care professionals from the American organization Wheels for Humanity.
Hats off to Peja!
