Donate to NYC Honor
Your gift puts our athletes on the national stage, covering uniforms, gear, and travel to compete with the country's best. Every athlete can also take our financial literacy & NIL lessons, built by volunteers, at no cost. Basketball opens the door. Financial literacy keeps it open.
Anthony Mauro scored 40 in a win at the MADE Hoops NYC Clash in April. In July he started for NYC Honor in the 17U championship game in Baltimore. Getting him there cost travel, entry fees, and a uniform. See the full 2026 season.
