Our MISSION
Educators are innovators
Team MAGIK, Inc. is a 501(c) (3) tax exempt nonprofit organization established to provide a mentoring program for boys and girls of all social and economic backgrounds who face adverse circumstances at home. We provide guidance as they grow from children to young adults. We have identified a specific need for stewards to mentor our youth throughout Metro Richmond.
Our mission: Provide leadership training and mentoring through basketball-based activities and educational programs for boys & girls in our communities as they develop from children into young adults.
Using the game of basketball to engage young people, we can instill the same character traits basketball gave me as I grew from a boy into a young adult.
Youth Development Initiative
Building the Metro Richmond network
We need partners to help build a strong foundation in the lives of the young boys and girls we serve, developing them into successful mothers, fathers, wives, husbands, professionals, entrepreneurs and community leaders.
· Partnership & volunteer opportunities – We welcome partnership with public & private elementary schools, middle schools & high schools, community centers & churches.
· All social-economic status – No matter where you are in life, nor what you've overcome, we encourage you join our team and change the lives of Team MAGIK kids.
· Motivational speaking engagements – Your past experiences offer you insight that could enhance the lives of others. Share your stories, teach lessons, offer guidance and incite inspiration when you partner with us to share your stories.
Help us build lasting relationships centered around trust, mutual respect and clearly defined expectations with the understanding that excellence is the standard, not the exception.
Team MAGIK acknowledges and is grateful for the support of current partners, sponsors, mentors and volunteers.
