WHY WE DO IT
Daily, thousands of children across South Africa and Zimbabwe are without the opportunity for fun, mentorship, and sports. By combining Basketball and our Skills 4 Life programming, H4H has been able to remain steadfast in its focus – improving the health and wellbeing of young people.
WHAT WE DO
Hoops 4 Hope has succeeded in creating an innovative sports-based youth leadership curriculum that supports youth development in local communities to address modern social challenges.
The H4H model is based on sound behavioral change theories, research, evaluation, and experience. Our proven Skills 4 Life curriculum is based on our 7 Tools of An Ubuntu Champion and peer mentorship.
a global community
H4H is centered around the concept of UBUNTU – an African philosophy of unity. The idea that every human is part of a greater whole, that I AM, BECAUSE WE ARE. It captures in one word, the combined love of all humanity and the responsibility we have to care for one another.
