My Project

I love how passionate, hardworking, and determined my student-athletes are both on and off the court. They show up ready to learn, push themselves, and grow as individuals and teammates. Many of them see basketball as more than just a sport it’s a place where they can build confidence, learn discipline, and find community. With the right equipment and gear, my players can train safely and effectively. Uniform items and accessories will help them feel a sense of pride and unity as a team. Every donation helps provide an opportunity for growth, encouragement, and a positive outlet for these amazing young people.
