Shaq is the big man with the big heart who has spent considerable time when he’s not playing for the Miami Heat, to support on the American youth. As a certified law enforcement officer Shaq has dedicated himself to cracking down on internet child predator crimes. As a businessman Shaq created his first line of affordable basketball shoes, Dunkman, in the 1990s, which are retailed at less than $50. He has sold over six million pairs in a single year to kids everywhere. When it comes to philanthropy, Shaq focuses on organizations like the Boys’ and Girls’ Clubs of America, to which he has donated $ I million dollars to support the development of technology centers for Clubs spanning the nation. The big man has also donated his efforts to the Make a Wish Foundation and Children’s Hospitals.
