For over 60 years, the Riverside Hawks have used basketball as a powerful tool to enrich lives, nurturing the hearts, minds, and souls of young athletes. We’ve discovered that, when strategically positioned, basketball can unlock a wealth of opportunities for young players in communities such as Harlem, Washington Heights, and across NYC. We’ve seen young athletes gain access to academic institutions they once thought unreachable and excel in entrance exams for NYC’s top high schools.

To us, basketball is more than a game. It’s a gateway, a lens, an opportunity for the Riverside Hawks community to transform the lives of young players across the city. We are dedicated to every face, every name, and every jersey in our program.

However, we can’t achieve this alone. We’re inviting you to join our 100x$100 Campaign. With $10,000, we aim to provide 20 college visits for our girls’ and boys’ high school basketball teams.

Our goal is straightforward yet ambitious: 100 individuals contributing $100 each. Together, we can transform lives and empower the next generation of leaders, both on and off the court.
