The Loyalty Club Partners with G W Carver High School to Design Their Basketball Team Uniforms & Support The Students

In a significant move to foster youth development and inspire future business leaders, The Loyalty Club, led by esteemed entrepreneur Blizzy, has proudly announced a major partnership with G W Carver High School in New Orleans. This initiative marks a milestone in the collaboration between local businesses and educational institutions, focusing on empowering the young minds of today.

The seeds of this collaboration were planted three to four years ago when Coach Devin Andrews, the current head coach of G W Carver’s sports team, reached out to The Loyalty Club with the idea of supporting the team. Financial constraints at the time delayed the project, but today, with The Loyalty Club in a stronger financial position, the vision has been brought to life.

Blizzy and Coach Andrews have a shared history of camaraderie and sportsmanship, having played basketball together since the age of 9. This longstanding relationship has been the cornerstone of a partnership deeply rooted in community values and mutual aspirations. Coach Andrews, who ascended to the head coach position after several years as an assistant coach, believes the timing of this partnership perfectly aligns with his new role and the financial readiness of The Loyalty Club.

Notably, the entire project has been financed by The Loyalty Club independently, without external investors or monetary support from G W Carver High School. In addition to resource provision and program support, The Loyalty Club is committed to making a substantial donation to the school, underscoring their dedication to community development and youth empowerment.

This partnership transcends financial support and symbolizes a passion-driven project to show students that success is not limited to entertainment or sports. It is an initiative aimed at proving that individuals from similar backgrounds can excel in the business world, offering a new narrative of success and ambition.

The Loyalty Club’s representative shared their excitement and future plans: “We’ll be making a donation to the school also. It really was more of a passion project for us to show the kids that they have successful people that look like them & come from where they come from that don’t rap or play sports. But that you can make it being a businessman or businesswoman.”
