Michael Jordan’s visit to his old high school in Wilmington, North Carolina, led to a life-changing moment when he found Mr. Wilson, the janitor who once encouraged him, still working at 80.
Learning of Wilson’s struggles, Jordan stepped in, funding a full home renovation for accessibility and setting up a trust fund. The community joined in to help.
When Wilson saw his transformed home, he was overwhelmed. Jordan’s generosity showed that “true success is measured not just in achievements, but in uplifting those who helped shape us.”
