Stephen and Ayesha Curry: Celebrating All-Star Weekend with Purpose and Community

This weekend, Stephen and Ayesha Curry are not just hosting parties and walking red carpets in the Bay Area—they’re making an impact. While their schedule is packed with celebrations, brunches, and the highly anticipated All-Star Game on Sunday night, they kicked off the festivities with something even more meaningful: giving back to the Oakland community.

Giving Back to Oakland

On Friday, before the glitz and glamour of All-Star Weekend took center stage, the Currys were hard at work at an elementary school in Oakland. Through their Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation, they organized a day of service and playground renovation, rallying 300 volunteers to spread mulch, plant 800 new plants, build new play spaces, and inspire local children.

“We just love Oakland,” Ayesha Curry told the Associated Press. “This is where we both became adults, where we started our life together, where we had our first child. And so for us, Oakland has always left this enormous impact on our spirits.”

Though the Golden State Warriors now play in San Francisco, the Currys have stayed true to their promise not to turn their backs on Oakland.

“We have an amazing team behind us that is taking the direction and the commitment that Ayesha and I have to Oakland and leveraging that to create amazing impact,” Stephen Curry said.

This latest project marks their 17th playground renovation, each one bringing smiles and excitement to local children.

The Bay Area: Their Forever Home

Stephen, originally from Ohio and raised in Charlotte, and Ayesha, from Toronto, have fully embraced the Bay Area as home. Stephen, who has spent his entire career with the Warriors, hopes to retire as a Warrior and remain in the Bay long after basketball.

“We do plan on staying here after basketball’s done,” he confirmed. “It’s definitely home.”

A Foundation Changing Lives

Founded five years ago, the Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation started around the time the COVID-19 pandemic magnified the need for assistance. The organization focuses on essential needs—nutrition, exercise, and literacy—to ensure children are equipped for success.

“That’s going to mean that kids are graduating and that’s going to mean that kids are moving on to something better in the future,” Ayesha Curry emphasized.

While Stephen is an 11-time NBA All-Star and four-time champion, and Ayesha is a renowned chef, restaurateur, and entrepreneur, their passion for community service is just as strong as their professional careers.

A Busy, but Meaningful Weekend

With the Warriors returning home at 2 a.m. on Friday after back-to-back road games, Stephen barely had time to rest before jumping into a packed weekend of commitments. Between hosting, community projects, and the All-Star Game broadcasted to 214 countries, it’s a whirlwind.

Yet, Stephen sees it as an opportunity.

“This is a great opportunity to kind of reflect on everything that’s gone into our experience here in the Bay,” he said. “Being the de facto host is kind of a responsibility, but I think we’re embracing it.”

Come Sunday night, when the weekend comes to a close, the Currys will finally take a breath. Until then, they’ll continue shining a light on basketball, the Bay, and the power of giving back.
