Michael Jordan has been making wishes come true since 1989. To celebrate his upcoming birthday, His Airness has made the largest individual donation to Make-A-Wish in its history at $10 million dollars. Jordan’s birthday wish is that others will join him in supporting the charity

As a part of his campaign to inspire others to donate, Make-A-Wish and MJ include donations in tiers related to MJ, like $23 in honor of his legendary jersey number or $60 in reference to his age. “For the past 34 years, it’s been an honor to partner with Make-A-Wish and help bring a smile and happiness to so many kids,” Jordan said in a news release. “Witnessing their strength and resilience during such a tough time in their lives has truly been an inspiration.”

Jordan is one of Make-A-Wish’s most requested wish-granters and has granted hundreds of wishes to kids all around the world. In 2008, he was named Chief Wish Ambassador for the “life-changing impacts he has had on wish kids and their families.”

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
