The Minnesota Chill Foundation would like to congratulate our President Marcus Hill on his induction into the Hall of Fame at Minnesota State University Mankato with his teammates of the 2010-2011 season. The Mavericks basketball made their first ever Division II National Championship appearance in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 2011. They advance to the NCAA to the final four. Eight months after playing his last college game in Springfield, he was back in Springfield playing his first professional game on the Springfield Armor team after being drafted into the NBA D League.
Since Marcus retired from playing professionally, his mission for the foundation has been to help others to attain their dreams, whether it is through education, health, wellness, or basketball. Since the inception of Chill Fitness for Kids program, which began in 2016. He has served over 650 youth through this program. U.S. obesity rates continue to rise in our youth, and necessary measures to circumvent this silent killer must be implemented to send tomorrow’s leaders on a promising path today. He offers his wisdom and guidance on transitioning to a healthier way of living both mentally and physically.
Adhering to his motto, “It’s not where you start, it’s where you finish,” Marcus is on a quest to use his accomplishments throughout his career in basketball as a model for evolution and why one must look past their current circumstances and instead look upward to their potential chances.
He understands that education is the key to all things in life for success. Through the foundation, the College readiness program, which starts in 8th grade, will help prepare the families with what is needed each year to achieve their goals and to help Navigant through the testing and administration process.
