Maurice Lucas Foundation jobs and careers

About Maurice Lucas Foundation

The Maurice Lucas Foundation was founded in honor of Maurice Lucas and his legacy of service to the Portland community. Fans knew Maurice as The Enforcer—a five-time NBA All-Star, the original power forward, and former NBA champion Portland Trail Blazer and assistant coach. Portlanders remember Maurice for his character as much as his athletic achievements. He was passionate about giving back to his community and he lived that every day. He treated each person he met with respect. He was an active contributor to charitable organizations, and he volunteered countless hours to coaching and mentoring youth. The foundation stands as a continuance of Maurice’s dedication to empower Portland’s youth with opportunities for positive developmental growth through sport. At the Maurice Lucas Foundation, kids come first. We are passionate about students’ success and believe in their ability to dream, learn, and achieve. Our programs, middle school through high school - and beyond, are built on academics, character development, physical activity, and community. Our focus is for all students to have an equitable opportunity to earn a high-quality education and access to transformational life opportunities.
