Let us start by introducing ourselves. WE GOT HANDLES ACADEMY CORP is a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating a safe and fun, yet structured training environment to give children access to affordable, quality Basketball training while enriching our local community with services and youth activities. The Vision for our organization came about through the life experience of our President, Coach Titus.

"Growing up, I had a love and a passion for Basketball. I was always playing, whether it was in my yard, at school, or at the Community Centers in my city, but access to extra-curricular training was not an option for me due to financial barriers. I witnessed other kids around me going to Camps and Clinics, taking part in personal training sessions to get that coveted spot on the school basketball team and felt like I was somewhat left behind because we couldn't afford it. But that didn't stop me! I kept going until I achieved my goal! Unfortunately, some kids don't keep going and they allow their circumstance to dictate their future. That's where the WE GOT HANDLES ACADEMY Family comes in!" - Coach Titus

Our Program reaches kids age 4-17yrs that have a desire to learn the game of Basketball. It doesn't matter the skill level, we make elite Basketball training accessible to everyone! Our program focuses not only on training but youth development. Our work is about equipping our youth with the keys to becoming successful in the game and life through consistent training, team-building skills, community service opportunities, and scholarships.

* Research shows that participation in sports is associated with:

• Improved educational and occupational skills (e.g., determination, perseverance, grit, resilience, critical thinking)

• Higher levels of academic achievement

• Greater leadership qualities

• Lower rates of anxiety and depression

• Lower amounts of stress

• Higher self-esteem and confidence

• Reduced risk of suicide

• Less substance abuse and fewer risky behaviors

In order to keep making a difference, we rely on the support of generous individuals and businesses like you in our community. We are currently working on a project that aims to cover Gym Facilities, Training Equipment, and Basic Operational Expenses to facilitate our weekly training schedule. We are looking for partners who would be willing to assist us in reaching our goal of raising 20K and your support is critical to our mission.

As our Partner, we will gladly keep you updated on our progress if you so wish, and your Name/Business Name will appear on the Donor Page of our website as well as on Signage at our Training and Events. Please join us in supporting our efforts in making a difference in the youth of our community. They are OUR FUTURE!
