Orlando Community Showing Incredible Strength, Perseverance and Teamwork

In a combined effort, the Orlando Magic, Orlando City, Orlando Pride, Orlando Solar Bears and Orlando Predators joined forces to display to the nation and the world Orlando’s strength and solidarity. The Magic, Lions, Pride, Solar Bears and Predators will be selling T-shirts emblazoned with the slogan, “#OrlandoUnited” and the net proceeds will be donated to the City of Orlando’s One Orlando Fund. On Tuesday, the Magic committed $100,000 and the DeVos Family Foundations contributed $400,000 to the City of Orlando’s One Orlando Fund, a community foundation initiative to support and distribute funds and other services to individuals who were affected by Sunday morning’s tragic events. “Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to those personally affected by the loss of loved ones following this weekend’s tragedy of hate in Orlando,” Orlando Magic CEO Alex Martins said. “We are proud to join with our fellow professional sports teams to assist those impacted by this tragedy and we will continue to be in contact with the City of Orlando, Red Cross, and our partner agencies such as the Zebra Coalition to provide assistance in our community.”

The Magic have also been active in trying to help Orlando’s healing following Sunday morning’s unspeakable tragedy.
