Photos and clips showed Wade hugging and playing with young campers at The Facility in Mequon, Wisconsin.

Dwyane Wade's goal is bigger than basketball—he's helping kids build a future
The camp ties into the Wade Scholars initiative and the Tragil‑Wade Johnson Summer Reading Program at Marquette University. Coaches like Dwyane Wade and Travis Diener introduce kids to literacy, mentorship, and the idea that reading can take you far.
The plan includes a new practice facility - more than a gym, a hub for young readers to connect with Marquette players and mentors.

The ultimate aim is to see program kids become scholars at Marquette and maybe even play on those courts one day.
Wade didn't write a long caption. He simply joined a thank‑you post that included real images: teaching dribbling, giving high‑fives, and hugging young fans. From youth learning words to mastering basketball, the footage painted a picture of care, not branding.
'For D‑Wade to be on court with little kids, reading and balling - it's powerful,' one fan wrote on X.
Others praised the low‑key, high‑impact messaging: literacy, mentorship, and community - all wrapped into one weekend.
Wade has long been known for his off‑court impact. Since launching this initiative in 2023, he's partnered with Marquette to promote literacy and mentorship. This latest event emphasized planting seeds of opportunity, through basketball and books, that can grow into real futures.
This weekend's moments reminded fans that Dwyane Wade remains committed not only to sport, but to shaping lives - one child, one book, one ball at a time.

From supporting the Philadelphia Eagles during their Super Bowl LIX victory over the Chiefs to being a prominent voice on the I Am Athlete Daily podcast, Nicole has carved a distinct niche for herself. Off the mic, she's also building a brand rooted in wellness. As CEO of Tribe Therepe, Nicole is on a mission to redefine fitness by focusing on the mind-body connection. 'It's focusing on the mental health component of working out, which is really, really important for me and really resonates with me,' she told PEOPLE. 'I think that when your mind is in a healthy place, your body will follow.' Her impact doesn't stop at fitness or podcasting. Nicole recently launched her own show, The Pre-Game, where she's unfiltered about everything — including her dating life. While she's known for her past with Kelce, she's made it clear that her future might steer away from dating athletes altogether. 'I'll never say never, but I fully, wholeheartedly believe that I am out of the athlete stage,' Nicole said. 'I would love to date an executive of a record label or a movie producer so that we can go to the sporting events. Let date night be courtside at the Lakers game, that's my kind of guy.' Whether it's through viral posts or meaningful projects, Kayla Nicole is proving that she's in a league of her own — with or without an NFL player by her side.
