Together, we have the power to create change. The Pacers Foundation is proud to lead the way through a variety of year-round initiatives that give back to Hoosiers in need throughout Indiana.
Drive & DIsh
Drive & Dish, Powered by Gleaners2Go is a free program funded by Indiana Pacers Coach Rick Carlisle with support by the Pacers Foundation, individual donors, corporate partners, and philanthropic entities to provide nourishing food with dignity to families in need, as we pursue food equity across Indiana.
STATE OF PLAY
We recognize the importance of well-maintained public spaces as a key part of community and youth development. State of Play is a grant opportunity dedicated to the refurbishment and renovation of basketball courts around the state. Individual grants up to $100,000 are available for capital improvement projects focused on basketball court refurbishment and renovation.
MATH HOOPS
The foundation seeks to empower young people and invest in community partnerships addressing equity and justice in education, health, and safety. We envision Indiana as a place where our young people have access to opportunities and experiences to thrive. We’ve teamed up with the Lilly Foundation and Learn Fresh to bring NBA Math Hoops to Indianapolis Public Schools and other school systems in Indiana.
