NEW YORK (August 17, 2005) – In recognition of Vince Carter’s community
outreach efforts and on-going generosity during the Summer of Goodwill, the
NBA announced today it will honor the New Jersey Nets forward with the
Community Assist Award for July. Carter recently donated $2.5 million to the
Volusia County School Systems for the design and construction of a new
gymnasium at his alma mater, Mainland High School in Daytona Beach, Fla. Also
in July, Carter held his annual Vince Carter Summer Jam benefiting his
Embassy of Hope Foundation.
-卡特捐贈了 兩百五十萬美金給Volusia County School System
It has been a busy off-season for Carter and his family as he hosted the 8th
Annual Vince Carter Summer Jam, which included The Vince Carter Charity Gala
and the Vince Carter Charity Golf Classic. The gala’s theme “Celebrating
Family” highlighted the birth of Vince and his wife’s daughter Kai
Michelle, born in New Jersey, as well as his extended family.
-今年的暑假對卡特和他的家庭是很忙碌的,今年舉辦第八屆的卡特夏季灌籃,
還有卡特慈善高爾夫。慶祝的主題是:慶祝家庭。卡特和他剛在紐澤西出世的
女兒Kai Michelle是他新增的家族成員。
Special
invitations and recognition for those in attendance were given to his former
teachers from kindergarten through high school, his doctors and his
ministers. Aside from a night of dancing and gourmet foods, participants
assisted the foundation in raising money by bidding on a host of silent
auction items and an exclusive number of live auction items. Funds raised
from this year’s events will benefit the Embassy of Hope Foundation “
Believing in Your Dreams” scholarship, Family Renew Community (Services for
domestic violence victims in Daytona Beach, Fla.) and The Salvation Army.
Carter’s other big event this summer was a Youth Basketball Academy that he
hosted in Daytona Beach, Fla., where campers, ages 8-18 from the U.S., China
and Sweden participated in a unique Father’s Day event in which the campers’
dads were invited to participate in a day of fun and games with Carter.
-(太長了)
“Since my success was not reached without help, one of my goals has always
been to help others,” said Carter. “The Embassy of Hope Advisory Board and
I try to encourage children and families to believe in their dreams. No one
does it alone; the success of young people needs the support of many.”
-卡特說:只要我沒有協助別人,我的成功便不算達成。
我的目標總是去協助其他人。The Embassy of Hope和我嘗試去鼓勵孩子們和家庭
去相信他們的夢想。沒有人孤獨的去做這事。
成功的年輕人需要去協助這些需要幫助的人。
Carter established The Embassy of Hope Foundation in 1998, to help address
the needs of children and their parents. The foundations’ slogan, “
Believing in Your Dreams,” represents Vince's lifelong commitment to
perseverance and achievement- qualities that have enabled him to excel as an
athlete and as a person committed to helping those less fortunate. In
addition to donating funds to worthwhile organizations and the “Believing in
Your Dreams” Scholarship, he makes numerous appearances throughout the year
on behalf on the foundation.
-卡特在1998年成立The Embassy of Hope Foundation,來救濟孩子與他們母親的需求。
基金會的口號:相信你的夢想。
After his trade to New Jersey, Carter made reached out to his new community
right away by participating in Nets community efforts hosting military
families at the NBA Store on Fifth Avenue and visiting a home for the
mentally disabled among other activities. This season, he will further his
reach by expanding his foundation’s efforts into the New Jersey community.
-當卡特被交易至紐澤西之後,便立即接觸它的新社區
Carter joins Chris Bosh of the Toronto Raptors (June), Jerome Williams of the
New York Knicks (May), and Derek Fisher of the Golden State Warriors (April)
as recent winners of the NBA’s Community Assist Award.
-CB4和JYD以及Fisher都是此獎的得主
As the recipient of the NBA Community Assist Award, Carter will receive the
David Robinson Plaque with the inscription, “Following the standard set by
NBA Legend David Robinson who improved the community piece by piece.” During
the 2002-03 season, NBA Commissioner David Stern presented the former San
Antonio Spurs star with an honorary plaque and announced that all future
winners of the NBA Community Assist Award would receive the David Robinson
Plaque. In addition to the plaque, a $5,000 gift will be given to the Embassy
of Hope Foundation in Carter’s name.
-五千元美金的禮物將會以卡特名義送往希望基金會
The league gives out the NBA Community Assist Award monthly to recognize
players for their charitable efforts. The award honors the NBA player who
reflects the passion that the league and its players have for their
communities.
-聯盟每個月都會頒發這個獎項給給做善事的球員。
這個獎項反應聯盟和球員對他們社區關懷的愛心
