Ring True Foundation
The Ring True Foundation was founded in 2001 by former NBA player Manute Bol. The mission of Ring True is to deliver relief to Christians in Sudan.
In 2002, Bol agreed to appear on Fox TV's Celebrity Boxing if they would broadcast the telephone number of his Ring True Foundation. Bol won a third-round victory over former football player William "The Refrigerator" Perry. The $35,000 he made went to the Ring True Foundation. Bol also signed a one-day contract with the Indianapolis Ice of the Central Hockey League. Though he could not skate, the publicity generated by his single-game appearance helped raise money for the Ring True Foundation.
