On Saturday night all-time boxing legend Manny Pacquiao defeated fellow boxer Keith Thurman at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
Proving that he is a champion both in and outside of the ring, Pacquiao surprised 13-year old cancer patient Joshua Gabazon and his family to join him in Vegas to watch the fight.
Manny has devoted himself to public service and donated more than one-third of his career earnings to charity. It is his goal to be an instrument of hope and change around the world. He established the Pacquiao Foundation to fight for those less fortunate.
Manny Pacquiao, who has been in the sport of boxing for more than two decades, is focused more than ever on public service. Manny and his wife, Jinkee, have long supported local communities throughout their careers, by building over 1,000 residential homes, aiding in natural disaster relief efforts, covering hospital bills and expenses, and providing food and resources to the hungry. Through their foundation, the hope is to continue serving such causes in a greater capacity.
The Manny Pacquiao Foundation will allow Manny and Jinkee to continue this commitment through a centralized organization to faithfully serve and help communities. Through a rebranding and relaunch of the existing foundation, the new foundation’s focus will be refined and life-changing for communities around the world. The Manny Pacquiao Foundation will work to serve residential areas, build hospitals, build schools, and to provide scholarships and resources to people through partnerships around the world.
Manny and Jinkee have undertaken many service projects throughout their lives and hope they can continue to maximize their outreach efforts and service to local communities.
