About

Description
Strive Foundation supports Strive Gold Team program which helps underprivileged and many talented girls to utilize basketball as a vehicle to earn scholarships in the United States to better their education and improve their lives. It uses basketball to teach teamwork, leadership, and perseverance, while providing academic support and help girls earn scholarships to those who excel in both areas. The program also includes internships, mentoring, and community outreach to build social impact experience. Selected participants may gain overseas exposure through international basketball opportunities and partnerships with other organizations, with an annual AAU summer trip to the United States to connect with college coaches and compete at a high level. China trips throughout the year for basketball competitions are also to keep the competitiveness high. The overarching goal is to help girls access higher education and future career opportunities, supported by a strong network designed to sustain leadership and advocacy within their communities.
