One-Time Gift
A single gift of any size keeps a gym open, a tutor paid, or a laptop in a student’s hands. Checks may be mailed to our PO Box (see below), payable to “The Bobby Jackson Foundation.”
Monthly Giving
Monthly donors — we call them Full Court Friends — give our programs the stability to plan a full school year in advance. Even $10 a month covers bus tokens for one student for a season.
Corporate Sponsorship
Local businesses can sponsor a gym, a season, or the scholarship fund. Sponsors receive recognition in our annual report and invitations to open gym nights. We cap corporate recognition at signage and print — we do not sell naming rights to programs.
In-Kind Donations
We accept gently used laptops (less than six years old), basketball equipment, and new socks and sneakers in youth sizes. Equipment donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Where the Money Goes
- 87% — programs (gyms, tutors, scholarships, devices)
