jsizzles journey
Jsizzles has made strides in various initiatives, including sending several girls to Puerto Rico for tryouts with the FIBA International Basketball Association while exploring their roots. Recently, we had the incredible opportunity to travel to El Salvador, where we donated 100 pairs of sneakers to local youth in partnership with the NPH organization, which has been serving the community since 1999. During our visit, we provided essential items like socks and necessities, explored historical monuments, and celebrated Christmas in the vibrant downtown area, creating lasting memories for many children who experienced the joy of new shoes for the first time.
Additionally, we engaged in traditional foods and youth sports, strengthening our connections with the community. Our efforts extend globally, as we explore Basketball Without Borders in Africa, providing support and assistance there as well. With your support, Jsizzles Foundation has distributed funds to help young Native men fulfill their cultural commitments while pursuing athletics. We admire their dedication to both their responsibilities and their heritage, and we proudly assist with costs for their annual trek to Hinhan Kaga for the Wakinyan Aku lyekiya Pi ceremony, where they hike and welcome back the thunders.
