Our INITIATIVES
after school & holiday programs
We partner with schools and community organizations to provide after-school and holiday programs for kids aged 6 – 16.
We work directly with teachers and staff, providing them with basketball and Skills 4 Life training, while they help bridge the gap between our programs and the children in the community.
jr. nba
The H4H model and curriculum has been adopted by NBA Africa and the H4H team has been brought in to lead the Jr. NBA coaches training program across the continent. The program has been piloted in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Morocco, and Rwanda to date.
basketball without borders
Since 2006, H4H has been invited to the annual Basketball Without Borders Africa to run our life skills clinics alongside NBA players and coaches.
court building
At H4H we take pride in investing in our communities and making sure that our kids have a safe place to play and have fun.
hoops africa: ubuntu matters
The film is a collection of stories that celebrates the past, present, and future of basketball in Africa, spotlighting the sport’s impact on society and its development on the continent. The film follows the journey of H4H’s very own Watitda Mukukula and was produced by former H4H intern, Taylor Sharp.
equipment donations
Since our inception as an organization, we have funded 8 shipping containers full of gently-used sneakers, jerseys, and other sports equipment from the United States to our sites in Southern Africa.
satellite programs
H4H teams up with governments and organizations around the world to deliver our curriculum and model to underserved children. Since our beginning, we have run programs in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Angola, Lithuania, the United States, and Canada.
