We are excited to announce that the next Basketball Clinic and Tournament organized by Francois Pehoua Charity will take place in the Central African Republic from March 30th through April 4th, 2026.
Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community in Port St. Lucie and other donors across the United States, we raised over $6,000 in 2024 and 2025 to support this cause. In 2023, we successfully hosted 104 kids and 24 coaches for a one-day mini tournament, which inspired us to expand our vision even further.
For 2026, we are aiming higher:
– 120 players
– 30 coaches
– 30 referees
All participants will take part in a 5-day intensive basketball clinic focused on skills development, teamwork, and leadership. On the 6th day, they will put their training into practice during a tournament, highlighting the growth and spirit of the program.
This ambitious project is made possible by the dedication of our local sponsors in the Central African Republic, combined with the unwavering support of our Port St. Lucie community and donors throughout the U.S. Together, we are empowering youth, strengthening communities, and building brighter futures through the power of sports.
