Hoops for Peace

Safe and Peaceful grantee The Terrell Bosley Anti-Violence Association hosts this annual basketball tournament for boys and girls of all ages who reside in underserved communities that are plagued by gun violence. They believe that the model of a basketball game teaches the importance of teamwork and allows participants to release stress through athletics.

The organization says its community outreach event served more than 250 families in the Chatham community, and it is growing annually because there are so many families in need.
