During the '90s, the game of basketball experienced rapid globalization. Basketball fans around the world tuned in to watch the top talent in the game. Michael Jordan became the face of the basketball surge, rising to global super-stardom and inspiring a legion of fans — including Japanese manga artist, Takehiko Inoue.
ENTER SAKURAGI
In 1990, Inoue introduced the world to the fictional Hanamichi Sakuragi – the protagonist in his popular "Slam Dunk" manga series. Sakuragi began as an outcast at his high school with a reputation for causing trouble. After a girl rejected him, he tried out for the basketball team, where he showcased his natural athleticism and helped turn his previously unknown high school team into an all-star contender in Japan. "I have been hugely inspired by Michael Jordan's game, as well as his attitude. It's been a great honor to have this opportunity," said Inoue. "At first, he was someone from a different planet — he could stay in the air longer than anybody else. Then I began to see him as someone who always encourages you to set a vision and challenge yourself to achieving it."
IN THE DETAILS
Inoue focused on details to continue the narrative of Sakuragi's story, which hasn't been in development since 1996. When readers last saw Sakuragi, he was sidelined with injuries. During the past 18 years, Inoue has said he'd imagine Sakuragi was still alive somewhere, recovering from injury and working out while continuing to think of himself as "the genius" he once was in high school basketball. Those days inspired the illustration — which will never be published — on the Jordan Super.Fly 3, part of a new Jordan Brand collection created in partnership with Inoue.
The number 10 is present throughout the collection, replacing the standard 23. The number is a nod to Sakuragi's player number and establishes the Jordan Brand x Slam Dunk collaboration as the character's very own player-exclusive line. "Using a legacy shoe like the iconic Air Jordan VI, as well as our latest performance model in the Jordan Super.Fly 3, served as the perfect vehicle to highlight the past and present — both in the product and the manga storyline," said Gemo Wong, Energy Director for Jordan Brand.
The limited Slam Dunk edition has an interesting take on the iconic silhouette. An all-red upper features the iconic imagery fans of the 31-volumed manga series have grown to love. The images highlight moments from the series, paying tribute to the legacy of Sakuragi's personal growth and on-court talent.
Super.Fly 3
The Jordan Brand's latest performance model — the Jordan Super.Fly 3 — is the canvas for the new sketches of the "Slam Dunk" world. The all-black upper provides the perfect backdrop to showcase the continued on-court legacy of Sakuragi. Even the shoebox serves as an additional platform to tell Sakuragi's continued story.

This 6oz stainless steel hip flask gift set comes with a pink 6oz hip flask, a matching pink cup, a funnel and a matching 1oz pink keychain flask. It is super lightweight and made from durable materials making it easy to carry.


Two strong grantee partners (Alternativa and Sulukule Volunteers Association) received their first multi-year/Negotiated General Support (NGS) grant. NGS grants offer grantees more flexibility and cover work towards key organizational goals.
Two sunset grants to longtime partners Asociacion Kallpa and Akshara (Front for Rapid Economic Advancement (FREA-India).
3 new groups from priority geographies for growth in FY19 were approved for partnership: one each in Argentina, Brazil and Turkey – two of these (Abraco Campeao and We Are Coding) received some EMpower funding last year through grants to other organizations. We are excited to continue our partnerships with these organizations and fund them directly.
Akshara, India ($68,000 for 24 months): EMpower's 8th grant to Akshara will enable 160 girls and young women from resource-poor communities in Mumbai in building their career related aspirations and assisting them in higher education and livelihood options to help them overcome the cycle of poverty. They will receive technical, employability and mentorship support to become competitive in the formal workforce. They will also receive life skills and support to navigate patriarchal norms and restrictions with more confidence and assert their rights in their families and communities and as citizens, also serving as role models for other girls and young women. This will be EMpower's last grant to Akshara.
Raoul Foundation, Russia ($40,000 for 12 months): EMpower's 2nd grant to Raoul Foundation will support 75 young people in strengthening their employability skills and gain their first experience of paid employment (some will also be trained in specific skills such as professional cleaning and retail). At least 45 of them will secure and retain employment within the 12 months of the project.
Kodluyoruz (We are Coding), Turkey ($25,000 for 12 months): EMpower's 1st grant to We are Coding will provide technical (AI, coding) and soft skill acquisition with the goal of increasing employability for 310 youth (15-17) from lower economic backgrounds who attend vocational school and major in information and communication technologies (ICT).
Sulukule Volunteers Association (SVA), Turkey ($44,000 for 24 months): EMpower's 3rd grant to SVA will support the delivery of a program for 240 vulnerable children (10-14 age group, estimated 25% recurring) that will improve physical and psycho-social wellbeing to support continued enrollment and increased performance in school.
Genç Hayat Vakfı, GHV (Youth Lives Foundation) ($45,000 for 12 months): EMpower's 2nd grant to Youth Lives Foundation (in cooperation with 'Kodluyoruz' NGO) will help to increase technical skill and soft skill acquisition for 345 youth (ages 12-16) from lower economic backgrounds. It will focus particularly on girls, by offering a coding training program and mainstreaming gender awareness and elements to increase self-esteem and awareness in tech-related areas, ultimately encouraging girls to shape their futures according to their interests and potential, not by their gender.
Asociación Kallpa para la Salud y el Desarrollo Integral (Kallpa), Peru ($90,000 for 24 months): EMpower's sixth and final grant to Kallpa will help strengthen the organization's fundraising capacity, effectively supporting the resource mobilization efforts that will fund the programs sponsored by EMpower moving forward. The grant will also help Kallpa strengthen its partnership with the public sector's night schools in Cusco, consolidating and improving the sustainability of the program that aims to strengthen the life skills and career plans of the extremely vulnerable youth that attend such schools.
Alternativa, Peru ($90,000 for 24 months): EMpower's fifth grant to Alternativa will enable it to work in five public schools in Comas, one of Lima's poorest districts, to provide training to 400 students aged between 14 and 18, helping them develop their social and employability skills, promote gender equity, provide access to comprehensive sexuality education, and prevent violence through education. Alternativa will sign official collaboration agreements with these schools to train teachers and transfer its youth development model. In addition, Alternativa will establish a partnership with a local organization to provide continued job training and job placement support to students who graduate from its program.
EMPUJAR - Fundación Pleroma, Argentina ($35,000 for 12 months): EMpower's first grant to EMPUJAR will help 200 vulnerable youth from Buenos Aires increase their employability prospects through skills training, mentoring, access to internships and job placement support. This will be done by working in partnership with a network of local businesses that support EMPUJAR's mission, both financially and through active participation in program activities. Program participants are between the ages of 17 and 24 and come from vulnerable backgrounds: some live in neighbourhoods without electricity or sanitation services, and their parents have primary level education only and are either unemployed or work in the informal sector.
Abraço Campeão (AC) ($20,000 for 12 months): EMpower's first regular grant to Abraço Campeão (AC) will help the organization launch a girls-only boxing program aimed at improving participants' self-esteem, developing leadership and life skills, and improving their academic performance. The program, which will target 30 adolescent girls between the ages of 10 and 19, as well as their parents, and will focus on combating harmful gender norms and providing pyscho-social support. It will foster a safe and encouraging space, as participants engage in girls-only boxing classes as well as workshops on gender equity and reproductive health issues. By making sports practice and program retention its key vectors, the program roots its methodology in wider evidence on the correlation between girls' athletics and academic performance.
