Bukayo Saka has once again shown why he is one of English football’s most admired figures, taking time out to donate over a thousand school uniforms to families struggling with the cost of living crisis.Hailing from Ealing, Saka gifted the uniforms to four local schools, including Greenford High, where he studied as a youngster. The Arsenal and England winger visited the school personally to surprise pupils, posing for photos, signing autographs, and helping distribute the uniforms to those in need.Sharing images of the day on Instagram, Saka wrote: "Special day going back home to launch our school uniform project. Thank you to all the schools, our partners and everybody else who helped us give to the students."In 2022, Saka was awarded the Freedom of the Borough of Ealing in recognition of his sporting achievements and his positive influence on young people, following his standout performances at UEFA Euro 2020. Meanwhile, Outside Greenford High stands a striking mural of Saka, painted in 2021 at the suggestion of a student, celebrating his rise from local schoolboy to football star.It’s clear that the community of Ealing loves Saka – and he loves it right back – using his platform to inspire both on and off the pitch.READ THE LATEST FASHION, CULTURE AND LIFESTYLE CONTENT FROM 90MIN
