$35,000 Air Jordan Sneakers! 1 of 2 Pairs (Nike DB Freestyle 2019!)

I attended the Nike x Doernbecher Freestyle event for 2019 this year again, and got to interview the amazing kids that designed their very own Nike Sneakers! In this video the kids describe the design process with Nike and their inspiration behind each sneaker. Hear about how the kids were selected, and WHY they ended up at Doernbecher Childrens Hospital here https://bit.ly/33zQ1Hg A one-of-a-kind collaboration between OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital and Nike, Inc., Doernbecher Freestyle allows children impacted by significant health challenges the opportunity to inspire others and help kids receiving care at the same hospital that saved their lives. Nike donates 100% of the profits from Doernbecher Freestyle to the children’s hospital. Since 2004, the program has raised nearly $24 million to help cover the cost of care for families in need, expand pioneering research that benefits kids around the world, and support specialized care unavailable anywhere else in the region.
