We're just lucky we had a camera to capture the top ten dunks of Festival last year! Which one was your favourite?
The words of empowerment and pride you shared with us, Veronica and Aboat, set a great example for future campers on how to lead with passion, grace, and humility. Thank you for being with us on this journey. #DreamBig #GOAcamper
We're forever inspired by the impact that basketball courts can bring to a community. Thank you to the local coaches in Oworo, Lagos and all the communities that empower African youth to #DreamBig through basketball and beyond.
The GOA court in Umoja, Nairobi, lights up after sundown to host night games, and the community comes together to play and grow. We love to see how this court has made it possible for the youth of Umoja to #DreamBig and achieve even bigger.
Thank you Webber Basketball Hoops & Courts, for sharing the impact the GOA courts have had on the youth of Lagos. We are moved to see the significant role of these courts in community development and the unifying power of basketball.
Attention all #GOAalumni! Mark your calendars for our first-ever alumni reunion! While the festivities are reserved for alumni, we'll be bringing the highlights to our entire community. Register here: GOAreunion2024.eventbrite.com/?aff=social
Our mission has always been to provide perspective and life skills beyond basketball, but all rooted in the game. We are so incredibly proud to see how far you've come, @dwaynederick_, and we can't wait to see your impact on the world in the future.
Today, we stand in remembrance and solidarity as we commemorate the 30th anniversary of the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi. Together with Masai Ujiri, we take a moment to join Rwanda in honouring the lives lost.
Umuganda, a day devoted to community service, is held in Rwanda every last Saturday of the month. Our participation in Umuganda at last year's Festival taught us how much can be accomplished when people come together. It was a special experience we won’t soon forget.
A big thank you to our 2022 and 2023 Content Creator Alumni Grant recipients, @dwaynederick_ and @ToureKonare, for reminding us that anything is possible if we #DreamBig. Applications for this years grants are open until April 19, 2024: giantsofafrica.org/alumni/
Thank you to GOA Alumni Myrah Oloo for showing us that being ourselves is the most important thing we can do. If you're interested in becoming an active part in empowering African youth, learn more at: giantsofafrica.org
Choreographer, actress, philanthropist, and advocate @SherrieSilver shares how she overcame obstacles in her early years and taught herself to #DreamBig. Thank you, Sherrie, for your empowering words.
See how Aita Ndiaye, a 2017 GOA alumni, knew from her first camp the role she needed to play for her future. Thank you, Aita, for your commitment to leading the next generation and for inspiring us all to #DreamBig.
A happy International Women’s Day to the women and girls who show us that no barrier is too high. A special thanks to our female coaches for their leadership and ability to empower young women and girls to #DreamBig.
As we head into #WomensHistoryMonth, let’s celebrate the undeniable strength, resilience, and talent of women and girls both on and off the court. Your confidence and spirit inspire us every day, and we can’t wait to see what you’ll achieve next.
Today Lino, a #GOAAlumni from South Sudan, shares his aspirations to improve his community after leaving his camp. Thank you, Lino, for inspiring us with your ambition. We know the future has big things in store for you — and we can’t wait to see what you achieve.
#BasketballCourts are more than infrastructure. They build communities. The GOA court in Bingerville, Ivory Coast, has become a hub of possibilities. Seeing the impact our courts have fuels our continuous commitment to building 100 courts in Africa. #BuiltWithin #DreamBig
