Give With Us

Donate

Funds raised go directly towards the delivery of initiatives with the pure goal of supporting, educating, and building leadership skills in young athletes. On-court and off-court experiences connect basketball skills with life skills.

Based in the heart of the Grandview-Woodlands neighbourhood, The Vancouver Basketball Foundation™ has a unique opportunity to target hard-to-reach Inner City communities with programming that engages and inspires children, youth, and adults alike.

Support The Vancouver Basketball Foundation™ through BC Amateur Sport Fund

The Vancouver Basketball Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering youth and building stronger communities through the transformative power of sport. Located in the Grandview-Woodlands neighborhood of Vancouver, we focus on providing opportunities for hard-to-reach and at-risk youth and young adults to thrive. Our mission is to use sport as a force for good, enabling young athletes and families to access programs that promote physical, social, and emotional growth. Guided by three key pillars—pre-sport, access to sport, and community impact—we are committed to reducing barriers, creating opportunities, and supporting holistic development for participants aged 5–18, as well as adults from underserved groups, including Indigenous, Two-Spirited, LGBTQ+, and vulnerable and at-risk youth.

Through our partnership with the BC Amateur Sport Fund, your donation will allow us to offer cost-free programs, leagues, camps, and other experiences with minimal to no barriers to participation and provide meaningful opportunities for Vancouver’s youth.

  • Deliver cost-free, accessible, and developmentally appropriate programs for youth to build essential life skills.
  • Ensure all participants have the tools they need to pursue and succeed in sport while staying active for life.
  • Expand our reach and impact in the community.
