ABOUT US
I Hoop Too Foundation
I Hoop Too Foundation was created to encourage and uplift the youth in our community through basketball and other community resources. While our emphasis is on young women, we serve the community in whole with several initiatives that focus on Personal Development, Education, and Health and Wellness. We are committed to showing up each day with BIG Energy, BIG Effort, and BIG Confidence as we strive to positively impact the world with each interaction.
Pillars of service
Personal Development
Personal Development is the process of continuous self-improvement and self-discovery. We want to create opportunities for young girls to learn more about their talents, abilities, values, beliefs, and aspirations so they can be confident in who they are and what they can do in life.
Education
We want to provide educational resources and opportunities to children in underserved populations. Education is instrumental in exposure to new people and experiences, creating equal opportunities, and fostering empowerment within our communities.
Health and Wellness
What good is personal development and education if you are too sick to enjoy it? We want to educate and engage our community in healthy, active life choices that promote strong physical, mental, and social well-being.
