Nike Community Stores empower a healthy local community through the unifying power of sport. Centered in diverse urban areas with distinct cultures, customs and passions, every store serves as a unique micro-community and gathering place for its residents. Our strategy to ensure every store was infused with local culture? Hit the streets. We combed the neighborhood for relevant insights and inspiration, forming close partnerships with community leaders and organizations. What followed were authentic, community-relevant stories.

McDonnell Avenue. Defined by an iconic entrance arch, Whittier Boulevard serves as the main thoroughfare — and de facto heart and soul — of East Los Angeles. Following the question-and-answer session, dos Santos joined a game of futsal on McDonnell Avenue, which had been turned into a pitch for the occasion. Additionally, Nike provides volunteer hours each month for Nike Community Ambassadors — store athletes who have completed training to deliver sports programming for kids — to give back within their community. Even before it opened, the East Los store team was bringing this mission to life, launching Marathon Kids, a Nike partner program, to connect local youth with sport and engage kids in a positive, simple, goal-driven running program that challenges them to run the equivalent of up to four marathons from In addition to Marathon Kids, Nike is committed to investing in the great organizations that serve the youth of East LA, including the Eastmont Community Center where the store team has been actively volunteering, helping to tutor local youth and staff the clothing store that supplements their fundraising efforts. Nike will continue to expand local support and partner closely with the community to determine which investments will best serve youth across East LA. As part of the Nike Community Store model, local store teams are empowered to award grants to organizations in their backyards via the Nike Community Impact Fund, which is being expanded beyond the Portland area to include all areas where Nike has community stores. All Community Stores aim to hire at least 80 percent of store employees from within a five-mile radius of the store. The East Los store has already exceeded this target, with athletes and coaches like Alfred Trejo who leads the back of house team.
