Our Mission
Hoop ‘Til It Hurts Foundation was built upon the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to benefit from competing in basketball. Our mission is to celebrate and to invest in kids in our hometown of Chicago and throughout the United States by providing athletic apparel and grants to pay for costs associated with tournaments, registration, league fees and travel expenses.
Hoop ‘Til It Hurts Foundation invests in kids who have the drive to play hard and to provide them with the resources they need on and off the court.

Our Story
Michael “Skeet” Horton grew up in one of the toughest neighborhoods in Chicago. Basketball was where Skeet learned to be accountable, on and off the court. And when he played, he gave it everything he had.
