Chris Paul Shouts Out His Wife Jada's Black Girl Magic and Big Heart

It's easy to see why the NBA star loves to show off his wife's charitable work.

Chris and Jada Paul are all about giving back.

The couple has initiated many great programs under the Chris Paul Family Foundation, but the program that’s most near and dear to Jada’s heart is her annual Prom Dress Giveaway.

In its sixth year, the philanthropist and basketball wife hosted more than 125 high school seniors in the Los Angeles area with a day of pampering at the Intercontinental Hotel in Century City. The NBA star was so proud of his wife’s continued efforts to give back to young girls that he took to Instagram to show her some big love.

“Shoutout to my wife @jada_ap, the volunteers and all the sponsors that made our Foundation’s 6th Annual Prom Dress Giveaway a success!! #BeAQueen #ChrisPaulFamilyFoundation,” shared the Los Angeles Clippers’ point guard.

The high schoolers who participated in the giveaway enjoyed a braid bar, makeup tutorials and a fashion show. The girls also took home a dress and accessories for their prom night.

"Real Queens Fix Each Others' Crowns" Today's #wcw goes to all the women that helped make my 6th annual Los Angeles Prom Dress Giveaway a huge success! I could not have done it without you, and I am beyond humbled with the outcome. Thank you to our sponsors, to our volunteers, and to the amazing young women who attended, my heart can't smile any bigger 💕 Welcome to Prom Season...I can't wait to see your photos! #BeAQueen #chrispaulpaulfamilyfoundation #jadapaulspromdressgiveaway #windsorstore #lafemmefashion #noxanabel #pinupgirlclothing #karozabridal #lasoiebridal #bridalelegance #onenightaffairgowns #dianaboutique #abundancegowns #scalaeveningwear #pricelessbridals #stevemadden #chineselaundry #spanx #stelladotstyle #honestlymargo #honestcompany #colourpop #morphebrushes #fredsegal #lokai #popballoons #diannvalentine #sweettoothbuffets
