This is where it started.

Eat. Learn. Play. began at a dinner table in 2019 with a simple, belief: every kid deserves more. What started as a conversation between Stephen and Ayesha Curry has grown into a village of partners, programs, and people committed to transforming what it means to grow up in Oakland.

This is the story of how — and why.
