The mission of the NBA Foundation is to drive economic opportunity in the Black community through employment and career development by funding programs that generate successful transitions from school to meaningful employment for Black youth.
The Foundation provides support to nonprofit organizations operating in NBA markets that promote school-to-career employment opportunities for Black youth, ages 14 to 24, including job readiness, skill training, job placement, and career advancement. Applicant organizations must serve Black youth within an NBA market; be a registered 501(c)(3) tax organization, or a T3010 if operating in Canada; and serve a minimum of 25 youth annually.
