    Nike has teamed up with OHSU Doernbecher Hospital since 2004 and raised over $17 Million for the Children’s Hospital with it’s annual Freestyle Collection – designed by some of the hospital’s patienets over he years.

    The kids this year will be looking to tackle some Nike and Jordan Brand classics and apparel in hope to add some more, much needed funds for the OHSU.

    Doernbecher Children’s Hospital today announced the lucky children that will participate in the Nike Doernbecher Freestyle XIV. The brave young patients selected for this opportunity get the chance to work with Nike designers to design colorways and details on existing shoes to tell their story, future goals, and more!

    We’re still about 3 months away from the official unveiling of the collection which happens in late October with a release in November, but it’s time to get excited now. So start saving your pennies to put towards a good cause – and even if you miss out on the collection, please make a donation anyway. You can change a life with your generosity.

    Take a look at this years Freestyle design team below!
