RainCity Basketball x Vertical Raise ππ₯
Huge thank you to for providing the structure and the frame work. This was a seamless process that made it fun and easy to raise money.
But really all the credit here goes to our family, friends, our biggest supporters and everyone in the RainCity community. We canβt thank you enough for supporting our fundraising mission Spring 2026.ππππ§‘
We set out to help cover our Travel expenses for our top Purple Teams. We wanted to be direct and clear about where the money would go. With the rising cost of everything especially gas, flights, and hotels it was very important to run this campaign to help all our families and provide these opportunities. ππ
In just 1 month we were able to raise $13,210.00 ππ₯
With a major focus on Canadian travel while being real about some of the best basketball competition for our players, and our teams have been on the move to Victoria, Comox, Kamloops, Kelowna, Calgary, and Edmonton. π¨π¦βΌοΈπ With more trips planned to these cities beyond to Toronto, Hawaii, and Seattle.ππ₯
These experiences create lifelong memories and relationships, as well as give our teams a chance to compete with some of the best programs around B.C. and in all of North Amercia.β€οΈπ
We definitely recommend working with Vertical Raise,
One last time to anyone that donated, thank you.π

RainCity Basketball was there with many other great people in the community working to raise money for all youth programs, initiatives and scholarships for the youth in the downtown Eastside. The energy was up!!
Coach Taylor was out shooting and set a Hoop a Thon record with 28 made FTβs in one minute. That was the high score but there was some other great scores on the day too. There was a lot of buckets for a cause.
Jonah - 26
Wayne - 25
Chen - 21
Maka - 20
Celebrity shooter hit 18 of his own repping for the news team, more importantly he was there rebounding and supporting also, heβs also raised quite a bit of money himself.
πππͺπͺβ€οΈπ
Please consider donating if you have not, there is still 11 days to do so, see the link in our bio!! $54k so far.π
Huge thank you to .suzuki.5 and everyone at the Rotary Club for all the work they do. RainCity promises to give Ron some shooting lessons for next year.ππ
Lastly, a massive thank you to everyone who has donated any amount of money, we know itβs not easy wit all the rising costs and uncertainty in the world, but no one deserves opportunity more than our youth.
They got next.

Itβs the 20th Annual Rotary Hoop a ThonβΌοΈπ₯
Itβs all going down April 25th / 2026
We are one week away and RainCity Basketball Club is joining the event this year for the first time to help raise as much money as we can for the youth in our community. All proceeds from this amazing event go directly to support youth programs, youth initiatives, and scholarships for secondary school students.β€οΈβ€οΈ
RainCity Basketball Coaches are forming a team and are seeking donations and pledges for our shooters.
ππ§‘π―ππ
How it works:
- Registered Teams / Players accepted flat rate donations of any amount, but also accept pledges of a dollar amount per bucket (ex. $10 per shot made) they hit in 1 min of FTβs. Either method of donation is great.
-Each Shooter gets 1 min to shoot and make as many Free Throws as they can to raise money π° for the next generation, the future leaders from Vancouver.ππ
Donβt be shy, see the link in the bio to donate.ππ
- How many FTs can Coach Tay hit in a minute??
- How many FTs can Coach Jose hit in a minute??
- Does being 7 ft give Coach Zach an advantage??
Please consider donating any amount if you can.
There is no better cause truly.π―π―
Shout to .suzuki.5 and all the great people working hard with the Rotary to run this event for20 years with the support of and the have raised over $667,000 for scholarships and other community projects in B.C.π
