Benefits of Becoming a Donor

The Squire Richmond Boys Basketball program is a nonprofit organization as recognized by the Internal Revenue Service. As such, we rely heavily on financial and product donations to help us. As a nonprofit, your company's donation can contribute a Tax Deductible donation. In return, your partnership with the Squires will give you exposure to a great number of potential customers. The Squires travel all over the East Coast, including New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, DC, a, North Carolina, Florida, Tennessee, Las Vegas, etc. In addition to getting great exposure, your company will give kids something they can have for the rest of their lives. It goes beyond basketball. It goes beyond winning and losing. It goes beyond glory. What this is all about is giving kids the chance of a lifetime.

For Youth

For some kids it may be the first time they get to travel outside of their state. Others, it might be the opportunity to get noticed by a college and get a scholarship offer. For others, it may be as simple as having the means to do something they love--play basketball. The bottom line is that this is something a kid can look back on as one of the greatest experiences of his life.

Making the Difference in a young persons life

This program was founded because we love kids and because we want to make a difference in their lives. The difference is what we have a proven track record in. Since the program's inception, over 180 young men have received college scholarships. Last year alone, we assisted 36 player in getting full scholarships. The program has been fortunate to have had former players who now have worldwide recognition. With so many negative things going on in the world, we're just trying to give them something positive that they can keep forever. We all remember the great times we had as a kid. With your help, we can make some last a lifetime! (Thank you in advance for your help.)
