The Rotary Hoop-A-Thon is an annual basketball fundraising event that helps hundreds of kids in East Vancouver. Money is raised by donations and pledges based on the number of successful free throws a player can sink in one minute.

 

Our Rotary partnership includes Rotary Club of Vancouver Sunrise, Rotary Club of Vancouver Yaletown, Rotary Club of Vancouver, Rotary Club of Vancouver Arbutus, Rotary Club of Vancouver Mountainview, Rotary Club of Vancouver Fraserview, Rotary Club of Vancouver Centennial.  We are also supported by the Vancouver Young Professionals Rotaract Club, and King George and Point Grey High School Interactors.

Who Do We Help?
 
All of the funds from The Rotary Hoop-A-Thon stay in your local community. In 2023 you helped us raise $53,785 for kids in East Vancouver.  Thank You!

 

We awarded funds for scholarships, the Strathcona Basketball Program and Youth Leadership Training.  

 

Scholarships help students with their tuition and other costs for college and university. All of the students who receive Rotary funding have demonstrated their commitment to community service, youth leadership and volunteerism - and have a verified need for financial support due to family and individual circumstances.

-Vincent S. - $10,000

-Shahar B. - $7000 

-Piper Y. - $5000

-Enda C. - $5000

-Charlie H. - $2000 

-Sam T. - $2000

-Kevin B. - $2000

 

Each of the following students received a $1000 scholarship:
