The Tim Hardaway Foundation, founded by Tim Hardaway in 2008, works to develop programs and support community-based organizations that address the health, educational and socio-economic needs of ethnically diverse, urban communities. In addition, the Tim Hardaway Foundation has focused efforts on giving voice to the voiceless in Haiti. By funding the construction of homes for impoverished families, the Tim Hardaway Foundation will establish livable conditions and give many children a healthy life to look forward to on the island.
Over the next few months, the Tim Hardaway Foundation will award money to community-based organizations that focus primarily on education, health and fitness. In addition, we will support more than 100 minority high school students with scholarships for tuition and summer programs, particularly summer basketball camps. Through this funding, the Tim Hardaway Foundation will give students an opportunity to improve their health, hone in their basketball skills and stay out of trouble.
Despite these remarkable projections, many people will remain without adequate support, many young people will be desperate for help, and many children will lack many of the resources they need to overcome life’s challenges. We recognize the overwhelming needs, but are dedicated to mitigating as much of these problems as possible in the coming years.
This is why together we need to do more and that’s why we are hoping you will lend support to the Tim Hardaway Charitable Foundation by getting involved with one of our community events, by sponsoring one of our important programs, or attending one of our monthly dinners.
The Tim Hardaway Foundation is geared up to make tremendous improvements in our community. We NEED your help.
