Started in 2018, Hi5 Youth Foundation’s ‘Pathway to Success’ program is an education & counseling support initiative. This program is a key extension to our flagship ‘Hope Thru Hoops’ – a basketball excellence program. While the core basketball program provides children with confidence and exposure (through tournaments, clinics etc), the Pathways program is meant to provide children with skill based assistance empowering their dreams of a successful future as well. Designed especially for children (ages 16-19 years) from disadvantaged backgrounds – who otherwise might have dropped out to engage in manual labour – this program aims to provide them with the right guidance and opportunities to complete their higher education and pursue a successful career in life.
Mission : All disadvantaged children in Hi5 program should pass their HSC i.e. 12th Std and continue to aim for better future
