Support Summer Slam Session 2026
Creating Opportunity Through Community, Sport, and Creativity
As we step into a new year, Generational Opportunities continues its mission to create positive, lasting impact through youth engagement, community events, and charitable outreach. Your support helps make programs like Summer Slam Session and other year-round initiatives possible—bringing people together, investing in the next generation, and strengthening our community.
One of our flagship events, Summer Slam Session, is a free, tournament-style 3v3 basketball charity event hosted in partnership with the City of Thornton during Thorntonfest. The event features boys and girls ages 10–17 competing in 12U, 14U, and 17U divisions, followed by adult 3v3 games where adult team buy-ins directly sponsor youth participation. Returning for its second year after debuting in 2025, all youth participation fees are covered by community partners and sponsors.
Whether you’re an individual donor, a local business, or an organization looking to give back, your contribution directly supports event planning, resources, and outreach that allow us to keep youth participation free and accessible. Sponsorship opportunities—including booth space—are available, and all donated amounts go directly toward supporting youth and community programming.
Together, we’re building opportunities that inspire connection, growth, and hope—
one event, one family, and one generation at a time.
