Over a year ago, Steph and Ayesha Curry launched Eat. Learn. Play – to help underprivileged children in Oakland. Over the past nine months, they have grown their foundation, working with partners to provide meals for around 25 percent of children in Oakland. After the COVID-19's threat started growing, Curry said in an interview that the 'need' has grown exponentially after the pandemic as the foundation is focusing more on feeding residents in Oakland. The organisation had previously teamed up with Oakland Unified School District and the Alameda County Community Food Bank. In February, the foundation fed 4,000 families. Now, they are providing over 300,000 meals a week to around 15,000 families.
