INTERNATIONAL SIGNS JOAKIM NOAH
Port St.
Lucie, FL -- July 8, 2021 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire
-- Altitude International
Holdings, Inc (OTCQB:
"ALTD") has announced that Joakim Noah has accepted a seat on
its Sports, Education and
Technology Advisory Board. The board is an assemblage of
highly accomplished individuals in the areas of
athletic/educational training and sports
science. Joakim will also play a leading role
in assisting in sourcing
funding
for
the Company's
charitable initiatives and relief efforts.
Joakim Noah is a two-time
NCAA Basketball Champion, a two-time NBA All Star, and in 2014 was
named All-NBA First Team as well as NBA Defensive Player of the
Year. He is renowned for his charismatic leadership and
unparalleled passion, both on and off the court. Throughout his
career, Joakim has dedicated himself to making a difference in the
lives of inner-city youth and in 2010 he founded the Noah's Arc
Foundation along with his mother to formally do just
that.
In recognition of his
selfless efforts, Joakim was the recipient of the 2015 J. Walter
Kennedy Citizenship Award and was also the winner of the NBA Cares
Community Assist Award that same year. Last month Joakim became one
of five former NBA greats to personally invest in the new "NBA
Africa" program and will be working closely with the league on its
multi-faceted Africa initiatives.
"Having spent a tremendous
amount of time in Africa with my father on a number of his
charitable projects, I know firsthand that the deadliest problem
facing our Motherland is the contaminated drinking water so many
are subjected to," said Noah.
"The horrifying truth is that
almost 850,000 of our brothers and sisters die every year from
diseases contracted directly from their drinking water, with our
babies being the most vulnerable. That's why I am ecstatic that my
brother-in-arms, Adrian Walton, has taken up the fight on behalf of
ALTD and blessed me with the opportunity to bring Africa the
amazing air-to-pure water systems ALTD is now manufacturing. The US
Department of Defense has already started utilizing our machines
and we just arranged to get 4 units shipped to Cameroon.
"I have faith that my fellow
players and maybe even the league itself will get squarely behind
our efforts when they see the immediate relief our pure water
machines can deliver."
Noah's Arc will also be
involved in raising the funds needed for ALTD's new Altitude
Basketball Academy, which will give us the opportunity to extend
our original mission outside of Chicago and to help lift the lives
of impoverished kids everywhere. I look forward to working with the
tremendous team of champions that Greg Breunich keeps adding to, as
we all look to get support for as many kids as we can, and to make
our Altitude Basketball Academy a resounding success story for
everyone involved."
Greg Breunich, ALTD CEO
concluded, "There is no finer person and no brighter light to
attract everything we need to succeed on our multiple missions than
Joakim Noah. His heart is as big as it gets, and he has captured
the full respect of everyone around the game. Noah's Arc and Joakim
are exactly what we need to maximize the positive impact on the
many lives we hope to touch.
