	MOSAEC Sports-Dawn Staley
		Staley’s decision to leave the now-defunct American Basketball League (ABL) and sign with the WNBA last summer is an example of how her goals drive her decision-making process.
		Staley knows that professional basketball is a business and that it’s her job, but being part of the Olympic team restores basketball as a “safe haven.” It allows her to be free - a feeling she confesses she didn’t always experience as a player in the ABL.
		Staley formed the Foundation in 1996, and she described it as a “goodwill community-oriented program geared to enrich the lives of inner-city youth.” The Foundation’s programs include an After School Project, a scholarship program, an Annual Day in the Park, and basketball clinics.
