Anonymous Donation of Air Jordans Raises Over $50,000 for Portland Shelter
A pair of rare Air Jordan sneakers, found in a donation bin at the Portland Rescue Mission, was auctioned off for over $50,000. The anonymous donor's gold-colored sneakers, a 2019 collaboration between Nike designer Tinker Hatfield and filmmaker Spike Lee, were sold through Sotheby's. The auction proceeds will benefit the Portland Rescue Mission, which helps thousands of people annually with hunger, homelessness, and addiction. Sotheby's waived its fee, ensuring that all the money goes to the shelter. The buyer's identity remains unknown.
