A weekend trip to Hong Kong doesn’t make a lot of sense. Over 15 hours flying for just over 24 hours on the ground is tough. But Jerry Stackhouse was the perfect candidate for the task. When asked about 10 days prior to the event, if The Skill Factory could bring a former NBA player to Hong Kong as the Ambassador for the Hong Kong Sports Festival, it seemed unlikely. But when I connected with Jerry, I knew it would be a great trip. We visited hospitals, talked to kids, shook hands, took pictures and of course signed autographs. All with smiles. Jerry was received by one of his biggest fans in the world who owned Stackhouse jerseys and shoes that even Jerry didn’t have. The best part about it all was that Jerry did it all with a smile and a pure heart. Grateful and kind. Selflessly and with a message. It was definitely special to see such an influential athlete giving back! Thank you to the guys in Hong Kong, Jerry, and The Skill Factory!
