Warriors Hoops For Kids Program to Donate $530,000 for Underserved Youth in the Bay Area

  1. Updates

The Warriors Community Foundation, in partnership with the Koret Foundation, Taube Family Foundation and Pacific Gas and Electric Company, continued the Hoops for Kids program this season, a program through which the Warriors achievements on the court support underserved youth in the Bay Area. Every Warriors three-pointer made during the 2015-16 regular season yields $500 toward eight organizations working locally to improve educational opportunities and life outcomes for kids. To date, the Warriors have hit an NBA-record 1,057 three-pointers this season (as of April 10, 2016), the first team to reach over 1,000 three-pointers in a single season, raising $530,000 and counting for Hoops for Kids.

Playworks is one of the eight organizations Hoops for Kids program supports. Read more.
