We’ve partnered with Knothole Foundation of the Carolina's to bring MLB Players STEM League to Wilson STEM Academy in Charlotte, NC! Knothole is a collaboration between U Deserve A Chance Foundation and the Carolinas Metro Reds and the organization’s mission is to increase access and opportunities for underserved youth through team participation and skill development on and off the baseball field.

By focusing on baseball instruction, academic support, and life skills development, the organization strives to eliminate racial inequity and expensive barriers to facilities, equipment, and instruction. We’re excited to contribute to that mission through high-quality math and social-emotional learning in the form of STEM League gameplay at Wilson!

Through a partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of America, we tipped off NBA Math Hoops programming in Fort Sam Houston with a training for educators in Fort Sam Houston Youth Programs! These educators serve nearly 60 youth living on the Texas base in afterschool programs. Shoutout to Coach Brie for introducing the educators to the NBA Math Hoops program!
