The Sanctuary
Our story is about the players. Some are devoted to a mission with basketball. Others are at the beginning of their journey. Our youngest and our oldest players all deserve a sanctuary. A place to truly enjoy basketball. Our players compete, learn, and grow, and I am deeply grateful to get to cultivate relationships with them.

Our pay what you can pricing model is a rejection of the current, high priced options most families consider. Accessibility is essential for our sanctuary.
Support the Community
Parents, prospective donors, and others interested in supporting our programming have a range of options.
Connections - word of mouth, referrals, partnerships, interested players. Our community has grown thanks to these connections. Programming will only improve with a deeper player-base, willing partnerships in the community, and families committed to assisting the kids.
Rides! - No matter where we’re hosting programming, the biggest barrier towards kids participating is physically getting to the gym/park!
Financially - We are a tax-exempt, fully functioning 501c3 non profit organization. Whether you’re just paying for a seasonal tuition, or making a larger contribution towards our mission, we’d be deeply appreciative to receive your support. Funding largely covers our healthy food program, tournament play, equipment, gym rentals, coaching, and administrative support.
For donors looking for a different way to donate (Checks, cash, etc), please contact Coach Henry directly -
We’re also able to answer any questions regarding our budget, specific funding requests, or our tax exempt status.
