New Heights creates opportunities for underserved student-athletes to break barriers and become leaders throughout their lives and careers.
Join us on Thursday, October 16, 2025 for the New Heights 20th Anniversary Gala to support and celebrate our programs that empower young people to excel on the court, in the classroom and in their communities – and to honor the people and partners who make every victory possible.
Now in its ninth year, our gala is New Heights’ largest annual fundraiser, bringing together leaders of business, sports, media, education and philanthropy to support and celebrate our programs that empower young people to excel on the basketball court, in the classroom and in their communities.
