KICKSN’ FLICKS I t’s not every day you get to hang out with a former NBA star! We were thrilled to recently work in partnership with the Josh Childress Foundation to host Adelaide’s first Kicks n’ Flicks afternoon. On 24 January, Adelaide 36ers star Josh Childress took nearly 30 children, including 19 from AnglicareSA programs, on the excursion of a lifetime. The program, which Childress has previously held overseas, seeks to inspire and engage vulnerable young people while having some fun. The group started its day by catching a screening of Jumanji at Hindley Street Film House before enjoying a delicious lunch at the Pancake Kitchen. At the end of the day, Josh treated each child to a brand new pair of sneakers of their choice from Foot Locker as a reminder of their day together. The generosity Josh showed was truly heartening and it was a fantastic experience for children who have had to face many challenges early in life. We’re very grateful to Josh and the Adelaide 36ers for this wonderful opportunity.
