Get to know one of our favorite Home Court kids. Each year at the Coach's Gift Banquet, we honor a participant, coach or community member who best exemplifies the Home Court mission. Last year we honored Jalen McCord, whose personal journey to Home Court inspired our coaches to make sure we are always providing an opportunity for our participants to find success both on and off the court.
As Jalen says in the video, Home Court has "not only given (him) the confidence to be a player on the court, but a leader as well." With a successful Coach's Gift Giving Campaign, even more kids will have the same positive and productive experience as Jalen.
Home Court’s biggest asset has always been the Home Court Coaches who have committed themselves to creating a high-performance environment for our younger participants. Like anything of substance however, those who give are often the ones who receive the most. The same skills and characteristics that our coaches exhibit on a daily basis are the same characteristics of successful students and community leaders. This is what we refer to as, The Coach’s Gift.
A portion of the proceeds raised will go towards our Coaching Development Fund which help offset operating expenses in order to keep programs as affordable as possible and ensuring as many families as possible can enjoy the unique experience of a Home Court program.
The Home Court Coach’s Giving Campaign is our annual celebration and fundraiser for our Coaching Development and Scholarship Funds. Thanks to a generous Matching Gift Pledge every dollar raised will be matched doubling the impact of your generosity on Home Court and the community. Our goal is to once again raise $200,000 (after the match) ensuring as many families as possible can enjoy the unique experience of a Home Court program.
Thanks to a successful 2022 Coach's Gift Giving Campaign, our gym was full of sweaty brows and smiling faces. Home Court was able to provide an opportunity for boys and girls to socialize, exercise and build skills and confidence for success on and off the court. Parents had the peace of mind of knowing that Home Court was operating programs in a safe, positive and productive environment.
With a successful Coach's Gift Giving Campaign, 2023 even more families will have the opportunity to enjoy the unique experience of a Home Court program.
