The annual “Hoops and Hops” fundraiser hosted by Y ME Mobility is a spirited community event that combines the excitement of basketball and craft beer to support those with high-cost adaptive vehicle needs. This event was created to bridge the funding gap that exists between government and state aid and the out-of-pocket expenses required for adaptive vehicle modification, a crucial resource that helps increase mobility and independence for people with disabilities.
Hoops and Hops gathers a diverse group of basketball enthusiasts, including local wheelchair basketball athletes, NBA players, college, and other league players, all coming together in support of this meaningful cause. Sponsored teams of athletes of all skill levels take part in a three point contest, and a timed skill challenge course.
Hoops and Hops promises an action-packed day filled with engaging activities for everyone, whether you’re a player or a fan. The event will feature a variety of locally brewed beers crafted with the finest hops and food trucks to please the crowd.
Beyond the court, a silent auction and raffle give guests additional ways to support the cause, with proceeds directly funding adaptive vehicle grants for those in need. With its inclusive approach and vibrant atmosphere, Hoops and Hops unites the community over a shared love for basketball, brew, and building accessible solutions for all.
