In an unprecedented act of generosity, New York Knicks star Josh Hart has donated his entire $20 million performance bonus and recent sponsorship earnings to charitable causes aimed at fighting homelessness and supporting underserved communities.
Hart’s teammate, Jalen Brunson, praised the selfless move in a heartfelt statement:
“There are millions of people struggling every day — families without homes, kids without food, veterans without support. If I can be a part of changing even a small piece of that, then it’s worth everything. What Josh is doing isn’t just generous — it’s inspiring.”
The funds will be distributed across several key initiatives, including youth shelters, food banks, veteran support programs, and mental health services in New York and across the country.
Hart, known for his grit on the court and humility off of it, emphasized that athletes have a platform and responsibility to lead by example.
“Basketball has given me everything I have. Now it’s time for me to give back in a way that matters.”
The donation is already being hailed as one of the most significant philanthropic gestures by an active professional athlete in recent years.
