On May 5, 2015, Helping Hoops had a birthday. It was five years ago that the charity was officially incorporated and took the first steps on the road to becoming something that means so much to so many people today.
The milestone was particularly special for those who have seen Helping Hoops grow from humble beginnings of one program per week to our 2015 schedule of seven weekly programs and over 300-sessions per year.
Every week, we make and keep promises to children suffering from disadvantage, and we are particularly proud to be able to do this all for free for the past five years. We would like to thank our coaches, staff, volunteers, partners, participants and families for being part of our community, and for making Helping Hoops a great place to be.
To celebrate, we asked our kids, coaches and volunteers to give us five. It’s a privilege to still be around doing what we love.
