We appreciate your support
Every gift goes to a Largo gym where boys and girls learn basketball, get homework help and find coaches who know their names. Thank you for being part of it.

Planned gifts to discuss with your financial advisor
Operations
The lights, the floor upkeep, the day to day costs of keeping a gym open for kids in Largo.
Equipment
Basketballs, agility gear, shooting machines and the rest of the training corner players use every week.
Programs
Training, camps, league play and after-school tutoring that help boys and girls grow in academics, sports and life.
Training scholarships
Gifts can help a student-athlete train who otherwise couldn't, so cost doesn't decide who gets coached.
The court you see here was rebuilt in the fall of 2013 with help from the community. Bay News 9 ran the story in January 2014 under the headline “Community Donations Upgrade Largo Non-Profit for Students.” You can find it in our press room.

You can make a difference
Every gift goes to the same place: kids on the court and at the homework table. Ask Coach Allen how to give, or bring a check by in person so the coaches can thank you.
