With the NBA lockout in full effect Steve Nash choose to hold off heading over seas to play, but instead putting his other talents to great use! Steve visited Camp Simcha in New York, a camp for children with chronic illnesses like cancer or other chronic and genetic ailments. It's a place for the children to forget about their disabilities or illness for a while, a place for them to just have fun and do what kids do best play! Every summer Camp Simcha invites 200 seriously ill children to have the summer of their lives with the overnight camp experience.
Steve Nash spent a day with these kids and were amazed by their positive attitude, never looking for sympathy for their situation and were all just there to have a great time forget about their medical needs just for a while.
Here's an article that sums up Steve Nash's visit to the camp, there is also a great video recapping the day. Steve Nash: Great point guard, better human
Not only do the kids look like they had a great time, Steve looked like he had a great time meeting with the kids and hanging out all day!
