Just call Kyle Kuzma Santa Claus … ’cause the NBA star decided to give back by delivering 20,000 essential goods to families in Flint, Michigan and Washington D.C. for the holidays!!
TMZ Sports is told … the Washington Wizards forward — who signed a $102 million deal in June — took it upon himself to leave a huge impact through his Kyle Kuzma Family Foundation’s Golden Ticket initiative.
We’re told the 28-year-old gifted 20k items to families in Flint and D.C. … and the delivery included clothes, essential home goods, water and toys for the kids.
Kuzma kicked things off earlier this month in Flint with the Genesee County Sheriff’s Department … going door to door and handing out 10,000 items — including water from Pathfinder.
Kuz also made deliveries in the nation’s capital on Thursday with 10,000 more units … in partnership with Good Projects, Hearts of Empowerment Washington Wizards and Zapps Wholesale.
We’re told D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser was so moved by the gesture, the basketball player was recognized with a proclamation.
This isn’t the first time Kuzma made an amazing donation to those in need … during Thanksgiving weekend, he donated $60k worth of clothing to female inmates at the county jail in Flint.
It’s a gesture that was important to Kuz, as he recently partnered with I.G.N.I.T.E. and R.I.S.E., two jail reforms that support incarcerated women to re-enter society.
Kuz also gave 15 single mothers in Flint a $1k shopping spree for the holidays.
Good stuff, Santa Kuz!!
