Give an Assist to an Atlanta Tar Heel

scholarship-alumnispaces

Meet a UNC legend and assist an Atlanta Tar Heel at our fourth annual Scholarship Dinner. Your money goes to help metro Atlanta students with their out-of-state tuition at UNC.

Our guest speaker will be beloved Tar Heel Phil Ford. 

A native of Rocky Mount, Ford came to epitomize Carolina basketball under Dean Smith, including the point guard who raised the four fingers to run Smith’s Four Corners offense. He scored 2,290 points in his career, holding the school record until Tyler Hansbrough eclipsed him in December 2008, almost 30 years later. He is now third all-time in assists at Carolina with 753, behind only Ed Cota and Kenny Smith. That record held for almost 20 years.

Today, he lives in the Triangle and is involved in multiple causes. He is a part of the group working develop Naismith Legacy Park in Wake County, a complex that will feature multiple gyms, classrooms and housing. He works with HumanCentric Performance, a company that has the patent on a mouthpiece that reads athletes’ core temperature to monitor performance and player safety. Through Phil Ford Basketball, he provides individual player instruction and gives speeches to groups, and The Phil Ford Foundation is dedicated to tackling the epidemic of childhood obesity.
