ABOUT US:

Midnight Basketball began nearly 20 years ago as a youth outreach initiative. It was supported mainly by High Point Parks & Recreation, High Point Housing Authority and the High Point Police Department. The intent was to provide cyclical programming for the youth and serve as a deterrent for crimes and violence committed as research indicated that most offenses committed particularly during the summer months.

The program began to dissipate in 2017 but gained renewed support with the help of the following:

• The MIND Group
• High Point Collaborative
• Hayden Harman Foundation
• City of High Point/HPPD
• Mount Zion Baptist Church
• Manna Church
• WRLP (Welfare Reform Liaison Project)
• Communities Against Violence
• Community Apprenticeship Program
• Ehphex Media
• Aksion Graphix, Inc.
• DRL Toons
