Donation Policy

The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to the game of basketball and makes charitable donations to eligible non-profit organizations locally that support and promote educational, social or community outreach programs.  We regret that due to the overwhelming volume of requests that we receive we are not able to fund every proposal. 

Guidelines:

Donations for use as fundraisers must benefit educational and/or social outreach programs that directly provide year-round academic and/or developmental support for youths.

Requests must be submitted with a completed Donation Request Form, along with a letter on the organization’s letterhead and all event paperwork and/or write-ups attached.  NO PHONE CALLS PLEASE.  We do not verbally deny or commit to donation requests.

A completed Donation Request Form must be submitted a minimum of six weeks prior to the requested deadline.  You will be notified of our decision within at least two (2) weeks or our event.

Organizations that receive donations will do so ONLY ONCE per calendar year.

Thank you,

Community Relations
