Draymond Green Secures $100 Million Endorsement Deal With Samsung, Donates $50 Million to Youth and Orphanage Programs
The partnership with Samsung will see Green become the face of several upcoming global campaigns, promoting Samsung’s next-gen smartphones, smartwatches, and wearable tech geared toward athletes and fitness enthusiasts. Green will also collaborate with Samsung on an exclusive sports-tech initiative aimed at integrating AI and wearable technology for athletic performance monitoring, positioning himself at the forefront of tech innovation in sports.
However, it’s what Green has decided to do with nearly half of his earnings that has taken the world by storm.
In a stunning act of generosity, Green announced that he will be donating $40 million to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, a move that is expected to expand after-school programs, sports leagues, mentorship opportunities, and educational resources for underserved youth across the country.
“I was once one of those kids in Saginaw who needed a safe place to go after school. The Boys & Girls Club changed my life, and I want to make sure that millions of other kids get the same opportunity,” Green said during a press conference on Monday.
In addition, Green pledged another $10 million to a California-based orphanage home—whose name he has not yet publicly disclosed—with plans to fund housing, education, therapy, and mentorship programs for children without families.
“These kids didn’t choose their circumstances,” Green stated. “If I can use my success to give them love, stability, and hope, then I’ve done something truly worthwhile.”
Green’s dual donation is being lauded as one of the most generous acts of giving in recent sports history, with fans, analysts, and fellow athletes praising his commitment to community empowerment.
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr called the moment “vintage Draymond—passionate, purpose-driven, and bigger than basketball.”
This new chapter in Green’s career symbolizes a powerful transition from elite athlete to global ambassador, humanitarian, and role model. With his impact now reaching far beyond the hardwood, Green is setting a new standard for what it means to be a modern sports icon.
Samsung CEO Han Jong-Hee issued a statement saying, “Draymond Green embodies the innovation, resilience, and leadership that defines Samsung. We are thrilled to have him as part of our global family.”
As the NBA season races toward the playoffs, Green continues to anchor the Warriors’ defense, but his off-court plays are proving just as game-changing.
With a heart as big as his presence on the court, Draymond Green is proving that true greatness isn’t just about championships—it’s about changing lives.
