Hoop DREAMS COME TRUE Program
At Hoop Dreams Inc, we are all about trying to help every young person dream and dream big. We have big hearts and want to share our love of basketball and love of life with the world. Through our Dreams Come True program, we reach out to communities and individuals in less fortunate situations and who have less opportunities and we do what we can to help their situation. While we realize that we cannot change the whole world, moving mountains require the moving of even small stones. Our Dreams Come True program aims to reach out and help make a positive difference in the lives of young people everywhere. Check out the 'Dreams' we are working to bring to reality this year below! Please donate in any way that you can to help us make a difference!

Teeth For Narcisso - Sincelejo, ColombiaNarcisso is a farmer who Jordan has worked with the past 2 years on his trips to Colombia. Narcisso was a well respected and well known farmer and community leader before the drug lords shot him in the mouth for not surrendering his farm or telling his community to allow the drug lords to take over the land. Miraculously, he survived but has only 1 tooth remaining. This makes eating difficult and also he is ashamed of his smile. We hope to raise enough money to help him regain a little bit of his dignity with a full set of pearly whites!
