When 9-year-old Riley Morrsion couldn’t find Curry 5 sneakers for girls on the Under Armour website, she decided to write to the basketball star for his help. And not only did Curry respond, but he went above and beyond to show just how much he cared.

“Dear Stephen Curry, My name is Riley (just like your daughter :), I’m 9 years old from Napa, California. I am a big fan of yours,” Morrison’s letter, posted on Twitter, reads. “I enjoy going to Warriors games with my dad. I asked my dad to buy me the new Curry 5’s, because I’m starting a new basketball season.”

“My dad and I visited the Under Armour website and were disappointed to see that there were no Curry 5’s for sale under the girls section,” Morrison’s letter continues. “However, they did have them for sale under the boys section, even to customize. I know you support girl athletes because you have two daughters and you host an all girls basketball camp. I hope you can work with Under Armour to change this because girls want to rock the Curry 5’s too.”

Appreciate you helping us get better Riley! We got you. #MoreToCome pic.twitter.com/UBoTklvwhg

After seeing the letter, Curry took the time to correct this error and sent Morrison a sweet message.

“Hey Riley, I appreciate your concern and have spent the last 2 days talking to Under Armour about how we can fix the issue,” Curry’s response states. “Unfortunately, we have labeled smaller sizes as ‘boys’ on the website. We are correcting this NOW! I want to make sure you can wear my kicks proudly—so I am going to send you a pair of Curry 5’s now AND you’ll be one of the first kids to get the Curry 6.”

“Lastly, we have something special in the works for International Women’s Day on March 8th, and I want you to celebrate with me!” Curry tells Morrison in the letter. “More to come on that, but plan to be in Oakland that night! All the best!”

The Under Armour website has officially been updated, and the Curry 5 sneakers can be found in the Girls’ Basketball Athletic Shoes section HERE.

After a contract extension in the San Francisco Bay Area, the Golden State Warriors superstar is dedicated to putting down roots there and getting involved in helping to improve the surrounding local communities. Curry told Yahoo Lifestyle, “I want to use my resources and connections in any way, shape, or form I can, to give back. I want to better the community in any way I can, especially in the Bay Area.” More specifically, he is teaming up with Brita for a really great cause.

It was brought to Curry’s attention that a growing number of schools have been testing their water and discovering contaminants. These schools are then forced to take the immediate step of buying bottled water for students. Some school systems have relied on bottled water for a decade because of the contaminants. “When I went to visit the school in my area, the students there weren’t able to get access to clean drinking water,” Curry told us.

Curry discovered this is still a problem in his own Oakland neighborhood, and as a parent, he knows that kids deserve better. He recently visited a local high school and played a pickup game with the students. After the game, the students told him how they didn’t have access to water fountains. This really hit home for the NBA player, who spent his early life growing up in the gyms.

Curry decided to partner with Brita to launch a grant program to help schools purchase and install filtering stations and replacements, eliminating their need to rely on bottled water. He told us that he is starting the initiative in the Bay Area but hopes to pursue it nationwide.

Both Curry and his fellow teammates feel strongly about using their celebrity status for the greater good. “We all understand why we’re NBA players, we love putting the ball in the basket, but there are serious issues, and we should leverage our platform for good,” Curry says.
