The Los Angeles Clippers forward gave out more than 1 million backpacks to stu
dents returning to three schools in L.A. this week, including his hometown sch
ool in Moreno Valley Unified. Students at Inglewood Unified and Los Angeles Un
ified school districts also received backpacks in partnership with the L.A. Cl
ippers Foundation and community non-profit Baby2Baby.
可爱今天宣布将捐赠100万个书包给莫雷诺谷、英格尔伍德市和洛杉矶联合学区三个南加
州地区的学生，而他也前去三所学校包括他自己以前就读的小学亲自发放，这项善举由可
爱和快艇基金会以及非营利机构Baby2Baby共同完成。
“My goal this year is to make a meaningful contribution both on and off the c
ourt,” Leonard said in a statement released by the Clippers. “This felt like
the right way to get started. It was important to me to make this announcemen
t in my hometown of Moreno Valley at my former elementary school, but the bene
fits this program will have across all of Los Angeles makes today even more sp
ecial.”
可爱：我今年的目标是在球场内外都做出有意义的贡献，我觉得这是正确的开始方式。在
我的家乡莫雷诺谷宣布这个消息对我来说很重要，我以前在那里上小学，但这个项目将为
整个洛杉矶地区带来好处，而这也使今天变得更加特别。
The non-profit provides children up to age 12 in poverty with diapers, clothin
g and basic necessities. The gift was intended to reduce stress on low-income
families as children head back to school.
这份礼物的目的在减少孩子重返校园时对低收入家庭的压力。
It is the largest gift in the history of the Los Angeles Unified School Distri
ct (LAUSD) impacting every student, according to the Clippers. Last year, 80 p
ercent of K-12 students in the district were eligible for free or reduced lunc
h, an indicator of low-income families or those who are homeless.
这是洛杉矶联合学区所获得历史上最大的礼物，影响了每位学生。去年该地区80％的K-12
学生有资格获得免费或减免午餐，这是低收入家庭或无家可归者的指标。
Families are constantly struggling with money choices along the lines of payin
g for rent or putting food on the table. Buying back-to-school items falls low
on the list of needs and many students go without a true backpack, instead us
ing a plastic bag.
那些家庭常常为了支付租金或食物的钱烦恼。 购买重返学校所需东西的需求量很少，许
多学生没有真正的背包，而是使用塑胶袋。
In a statement, co-president Kelly Sawyer Patricof said backpacks are one of t
he most highly requested items for children in the program
背包是这个儿童计划中需求度最高的东西。
