"Change Their Lives By Changing Their Environment!" This is the heart cry of the Shaun Livingston Foundation. The foundation seeks to create life-changing environments to help America's youth develop into strong, focused individuals, with a mindset to attain the highest level of personal success.

The foundation will strive to serve children, their families and the communities by "Creating an Environment for Success." "We have an ambitious vision for the foundation" says Shaun Livingston, L.A. Clippers' point guard and founder of the Shaun Livingston Foundation. "With a committed team on board I believe that the level of difficulty is greatly diminished when it comes to obtaining people to do what they already long to do - help our children grow strong in the communities where they live."

The foundation will partner with local organizations that implement effective community-based programs focusing on character building, academic excellence, physical and mental health, volunteering, career planning and leadership development.

The foundation will host a series of fund-raising events to support its vision and mission with a kick-off event scheduled for April 2008.
