WNBA star Angel Reese, known for her on-court dominance and off-court charisma, has secured yet another high-profile partnership—this time with Cash App.
As reported by Vibe, Reese, a key player for the Chicago Sky, is collaborating with the popular digital banking service to lead community empowerment initiatives, engage fans with giveaways, and launch exclusive debit cards.
But this partnership goes beyond endorsements! Reese is using this opportunity to drive financial literacy among her supporters and uplift her hometown.
Cash App announced The Angel Machine, an interactive game in Chicago where fans can win Reese-themed memorabilia, including her iconic crown and college jersey. But the impact extends further.
Reese shared her excitement, stating:
“I’m grateful to partner with Cash App, a brand that is committed to supporting my efforts in driving impact on and off the court.”
This partnership marks Cash App’s first venture into the WNBA space, a move designed to connect sport, culture, and financial empowerment.
Uplifting Baton Rouge: Reese’s Personal Mission
One of the most heartwarming aspects of this collaboration is Cash App and Reese’s plan to renovate a basketball court in Baton Rouge, Reese’s hometown. In December, a block party will be held to celebrate the upgrades.
Reese’s dedication to giving back is evident through her Angel C. Reese Foundation, which is focused on empowering girls and the next generation.
“I’m thrilled that as part of this partnership, we’ll renovate a basketball court in the city of my alma mater, Baton Rouge, a place and community that means so much to me,” Reese said, highlighting how this project aligns with her commitment to community upliftment.
Beyond Basketball: A Push for Financial Literacy
Reese’s deal with Cash App will also shine a spotlight on financial literacy, an area where she aims to educate and empower her fanbase.
As part of Cash App’s new campaign, set to launch later this year, Reese will encourage her followers to take control of their financial futures. Cash App customers and Reese fans can design debit cards with her signature touch and even enjoy discounts on her merchandise through Cash App’s platform.
Catherine Ferdon, Cash App’s Chief Marketing Officer, emphasized Reese’s trailblazing spirit: “Angel Reese is redefining what it means to be a game changer, authentically pushing the boundaries between sport and culture.”
More to Come: A Continued Partnership with Unapologetically Angel
Cash App’s involvement will also extend to Reese’s podcast, Unapologetically Angel, which recently featured rapper Glorilla.
The podcast provides a behind-the-scenes look at Reese’s life off the court and is set to benefit from this new sponsorship, further cementing Reese’s position as not only a sports icon but also a cultural influencer.
