Hoops for Hope — Thank You for Your Support
A community-wide free-throw fundraiser by Legacy Hoopers, held Oct 28–30, 2025, supporting families affected by PPP3CA.
The event has concluded, but donations remain open to support ongoing research and family support.
About Hoops for Hope
Hoops for Hope brought together all Legacy Hoopers teams for a meaningful cause — supporting a family member of one of our players and raising awareness for PPP3CA-related disorders. Over three nights of practices, players across grades 4–6 stepped to the free-throw line, families filled the stands, and sponsors pledged support for every made shot.
The event was a powerful reminder that Legacy Hoopers is more than basketball. When one of our families needs help, the entire program steps up.
What is PPP3CA?
PPP3CA is a gene that helps brain cells communicate through the enzyme calcineurin. Mutations can lead to early-onset seizures and developmental challenges. Funds raised help the PPP3CA Hope Foundation advance research and support families living with this condition.
