The Boston Celtics prodigy Jayson Tatum shares a touching story about his transformation from a single-parent home to a change-making force. With the NBA’s official banking partner, SoFi, Tatum can further his goal of empowering families a goal that is close to his heart.
The 25-year-old Boston Celtics player Jayson Tatum has announced a ground-breaking collaboration with SoFi, which is a major step in his mission to empower and educate people about money. Tatum, who grew up in a single-parent family in St. Louis, Missouri, is appreciative of the opportunity to give back to his community as a whole as well as single-parent households.
The SoFi Generational Wealth Fund, a million-dollar project aimed at fostering financial knowledge and building wealth that can support a family was introduced by Tatum and SoFi. This incredible partnership is in line with the Jayson Tatum Foundation’s S.M.A.R.T Project which helps single parents deal with the challenges of raising a child getting an education and managing their finances.
Tatum is passionate about promoting homeownership choices for families, and SoFi’s $1 million commitment to the Generational Wealth Fund catalyzes this effort. Tatum highlights the transformative power of homeownership drawing from his personal experiences and imagining a better future for the families aided by this program.
The NBA and SoFi inked a multi-year agreement earlier this month, making SoFi the official banking partner of USA Basketball, the NBA G League, the NBA 2K League, and the NBA. In addition to being consistent with his ideals, Tatum’s relationship with SoFi advances the cause of financial empowerment in the NBA.
Tatum describes his upbringing in a single-parent home where financial hardships were commonplace. He and his mother didn’t know how to save money and lived paycheck to paycheck. Now that he is financially secure, he wants to leave a lasting impression, particularly on those from similar backgrounds.
