Georgetown Coach Creates Family Foundation

Georgetown University basketball coach, John Thompson III and his wife, Monica, have created the John Thompson III Foundation.

The mission of the Foundation is to foster community-based charities that serve at-risk children and families. The primary focus is education and healthcare.

The Foundation partners primarily, but not exclusively, with non-profits in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan region, that specialize in programs targeted to underserved children and families.
