Our Story
Stephen developed Him Athletics while as a varsity basketball player, inspired by the impact he and his teammates had on the community.
Professional athletes leverage their status to change communities for the better. Young and amateur athletes can do the same with equal or even greater impact.
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we do our work to make a difference in the lives of those around us.
What Does it Take?
All it takes is the mindset to be a man for others, the time to give more of yourself to support the community, and the willingness to become your best self.
