Uncle Funky\u2019s Daughter<\/a> is honored to announce the signing of Haley Jones as a new College Athlete Brand Ambassador<\/a>.\u00a0 We created a College Athlete Brand Ambassador program to empower student athletes of color to push limits, break barriers and create change for a more equitable future. With this program, we aim to encourage youth to celebrate their individuality and uniqueness and embrace the beauty of their curly and textured hair with natural hair products that love them back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With her passion for basketball and her winning mindset, Jones was named Most Outstanding Player of 2021 NCAA Tournament. As a freshman at Stanford University in 2019\u201320, Haley Jones averaged 11.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.4 assist before suffering a season-ending knee ligament injury. The following season in 2020\u201321 Jones returned to play, averaging 13.2 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists. Stanford\u2019s Cardinal won the 2021 NCAA tournament for their first national title since 1992.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While being an exceptional women’s basketball player, there were times when Jones battled with insecurities and didn\u2019t feel like she fits in.  While going through her natural hair journey and learning to embrace her curls, Jones realized that female athletes have a voice that can be used to create change. \u201cI love being able to inspire the next generation and help them work through problems and give them a role model that I didn’t have,\u201d <\/em>Jones said. By partnering with a brand like Uncle Funky\u2019s Daughter, Haley Jones hopes to become a role model for everyone who experiences similar struggles and insecurities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
