💙 Why We Play:
All proceeds from Hoops & Heroes go to the Kimberly Maddox Youth Scholarship Fund, supporting Long Beach youth who are pursuing careers in law and law enforcement.
Kimberly Maddox was a proud Long Beach Police Officer, CSULB Hall of Famer, dedicated mentor to the LBPD Youth Explorers Program, and a board member of California Families in Focus. She believed in building bridges, uplifting youth, and unifying our community.
In her honor, California Families in Focus has awarded over $30,000 in scholarships to deserving young people in Long Beach who aspire to serve and protect with integrity and purpose.
🙌 Help Us Carry the Legacy of Kimberly Maddox Forward.
Come for the hoops. Stay for the heroes. Together, we build community—one game at a time.
