the program

Principles of the Program:

Hoops from Home is deeply rooted on 3 simple principles the 3 I's: Integrity, Initiative, Intentness. Each of these three principles were carefully chosen to represent the goals of the Hoops from Home Foundation itself, the Hoops from Home staff and for each and every child attending our camp.

Integrity: Integrity is a core value that in many aspects of society has been lost on today's youth. Having a moral compass is the core thread throughout the fabric of Hoops from Home. It's about formulating the building blocks that lead one on the path of success and including the important element of integrity in all that one does.  There is no shame when you have tried your best if you have done it with Integrity.

Initiative: Hoops from Home is taking the initiative to fullfill a need for our children of the military.  HFH will serve to encourage each camper to take the initiative to make yourself, your community, and your country better. The internal motor cannot be set onto cruise control to make a difference. Hoops from Home is committed to include and create programs in each military establishment to ensure that each camper finds a way to take the Initiative to pay forward the lessons and experiences they will take from their camp experience.

Intentness: Intentness is an approach to life. Do you stop at the first hurdle or do you push through?  Persistence and determination are what carry you through life and at Hoops from Home we believe that intentness is of the utmost importance to build in these young adults.

Each camp will include various education elements, folding in our principles and highlighting our 3 I's.
