The Quinnen Williams Foundation
The Quinnen Williams Foundation works to ease challenges facing families and youth in the communities that shaped Quinnen’s life—from his childhood neighborhood to the city where he plays.
American Cancer Society
The American Cancer Society is the leading cancer-fighting organization with one clear vision: to end cancer as we know it, for everyone. Through groundbreaking research, bold advocacy, and free services like a 24/7 helpline, rides to treatment, and lodging near hospitals, the organization stands with patients and families in some of the hardest moments of their lives. By expanding access to screening and quality care in every community, the American Cancer Society is turning fear into action and helping more people survive and live well after cancer.
“I choose to honor my mother, who passed away from breast cancer years ago, and to provide hope to those in the fight. I also choose to support my personal foundation, the Quinnen Williams Foundation, to continue to advocate for single-parent households and the underserved youth of Birmingham, AL.”
