Contact us +1 (352) 557-1573
Is my donation tax-deductible?
Yes. The foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, EIN 99-4757283, and gifts are tax-deductible to the extent the law allows.
What does $50 a month cover?
Meals, notebooks and transport for one student each month, as part of the education, meals and mentorship every sponsored student receives.
Monthly or one-time: which should I choose?
Monthly gives a student steady support all year. One-time funds a set stretch, from a month of meals ($100) to a full-year scholarship ($2,000) or a whole team ($10,000). Both make a real difference.
What does $500 do?
Three months of mentorship, tutoring and basketball training for one student.
What does a $1,000 gift cover?
Six months of full support for one student: meals, school help, mentorship and training.
How will I see the impact?
Every dollar is tracked, and sponsors receive videos, stories and updates showing how their support is changing a student's life.
Can I give items instead of money?
Yes. We welcome school supplies, sports gear and technology. See all the ways to help.
Can my business or school give?
Yes. Partners can fund scholarships, provide resources or co-host events. Talk to us about a partnership.
