Posted

Hall of Famer and Top 50 NBA All-Time Legend Rick Barry and his son, 1988 University of Kansas NCAA champion Scooter Barry, visited the home of Mariam and Menachem Lieber last week to help raise awareness of OHEL’s Foster Care Division. Over 100 people and children took part in a new program that the organization calls “OHEL Backyard NBA,” where OHEL brings star players to people’s homes and communities to create awareness of and raise funds for its many programs. Of course, there was also lots of basketball played. “I knew that OHEL does a lot for the Jewish community, but I never realized just how much. While I was here on the East Coast I got to see some of its services up close and personal, and I came away a huge fan of their work,” said Barry.
