Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker has donated $500,000 to help a grieving family in Brenham, Texas, rebuild their lives after losing both their home and their 10-year-old son in a tragic flood on May 5th.
Booker, who has established himself as a leader on and off the court, was moved by the heartbreaking loss of the Johnson family. The flood swept away their home, leaving them devastated. Upon hearing the news, Booker wasted no time in offering support.
“This tragedy is bigger than basketball,” Booker said in a statement. “I just wanted to do my part in helping this family during their most difficult time. No one should go through this alone.”
The donation, made through a verified GoFundMe page, will go directly toward rebuilding the family’s home and providing for essential needs such as clothing, furniture, and counseling services. Booker’s contribution has also inspired others to step up, with local and national supporters rallying around the family in their time of need.
“Devin Booker may play for Phoenix, but his impact is felt far beyond the court,” said a city official from Brenham. “This kind of generosity speaks volumes about his character and the man he is.”
The Johnson family expressed heartfelt gratitude for Booker’s unexpected generosity, calling it “a light in our darkest days.”
