NEWS ARCHIVE
Project Contact was founded in 1995 after former NBA star Kermit Washington took a trip to Rwanda, Africa with Northwest Medical Teams, an organization that brings medical relief to different nations of Africa. During his time there, he observed such a high rate of human suffering and such atrocious living conditions; he was inspired to try to make a change himself. Kermit decided to expand his then existing charity, The Sixth Man Foundation, a local (Oregon) charity that helps out the citizens of Portland, into something more global. Project Contact was born.
