Boston Celtics Donate Mobile Lab to the Edison School

The Boston Celtics continued to demonstrate their commitment to supporting the students and families of the Boston Public Schools by donating a brand-new set of 25 Macbook computers and a mobile cart to the Edison K-8 School in Brighton. To further illustrate the importance of community service, Managing Partner Steve Pagliuca and General Manager Danny Ainge also introduced their top two draft picks at the school when they unveiled the mobile computer lab. JaJuan Johnson and E'Twaun Moore were introduced as the newest Boston Celtics and then immediately put to work with 23 students of the Edison School on a scavenger hunt activity using the new computers. The students answered questions about the history of the Boston Celtics, including a question about Celtics general manager Danny Ainge, who also worked with the students.

This is the fifth computer lab donated this year by either the Boston Celtic's Shamrock Foundation or Ray Allen's Ray of Hope Foundation. The other new computer labs are located at the Dearborn School, the Hernandez School, the Tobin School and the Sarah Greenwood School.
