Money Williams

Money Williams is a Sophomore guard from Oakland, California, and his story is inspiring.

Money Williams lost his father in 2023 and lost his mother this past October. This loss has forced Money to become the parental figure to his siblings.

To help with the burden, Money started a GoFundMe.

This fund is to help with expenses and more for his siblings.

He had raised nearly $70,000, but that changed a few weeks ago.
