Our mission is sport, education and mentoring, Savannah Pride is a none for profit youth organization dedicated to inspiring Australian youth through basketball in NSW. What started in 2006 as a small group of coaches and students coming together better the lives of South Sudanese Australian families through basketball programs in Blacktown, Savannah Pride is now an all-inclusive community organization that attract kids across all areas and support them through basketball right across NSW. Much like the Savannah tree, basketball grown into something that bring all walks of life together: Families, students, mentors, educators and the entire community. Savannah Pride aims to not just African-Australian communities but also anyone who looks to be inspired, helping young kids channel their energy into school and competitive sport, while keeping them out of trouble. Savannah Pride provides well rounded development for boys and girls with basketball programs, education programs, homework support and cultural guidance. The men and women that make up Savannah Pride have created a reassurance in their community, working alongside the youth, their families, their schools and local police. A community that is developing deep roots and strong branches, Savannah Pride has been welcomed by all involved, particularly the youth in Western Sydney.
