9th Annual Ballin' 4 Peace Charity Basketball Game Unites Stars for Peace and Student Scholarships
eTradeWire News/10806475
NEW YORK - eTradeWire -- Celebrities, athletes, and entertainers are set to take the court on Friday, June 14, 2025, at John Jay College in Manhattan for the 9th Annual Ballin' 4 Peace Celebrity Charity Basketball Game. This star-studded event, led by former pro basketball player Haron "H2O" Hargrave and strategic partner Thomas Teel, aims to promote peace, empower youth through culture, and raise vital funds for student-athlete scholarships.
Founded by Queens native Haron Hargrave in 2015, Ballin' 4 Peace harnesses the positive influence of basketball to drive social change. The organization provides mentorship and crucial college scholarships to young athletes, bridging the financial gap for those aspiring to higher education. Thomas Teel, a technologist and trusted partner, has been instrumental in the initiative's strategic and creative execution, building it into a resonant platform for youth sports.

"In this new era of college sports defined by Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals, we're stepping up for the student-athletes who still struggle to afford higher education," said Haron Hargrave. "Not everyone gets a big endorsement contract or even a full sports scholarship. Our mission is to bridge that gap and make sure these kids have a shot at college and a better future. We're not just playing ball; we're changing lives by opening doors to education."
The family-friendly event, running from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM at John Jay College's Haaren Hall (524 W. 59th St), promises a dynamic lineup of excitement. Attendees will enjoy a youth basketball showcase game, a high-flying slam dunk contest, a three-point shootout, and the highly anticipated celebrity basketball game featuring notable figures from sports and entertainment.
Ballin' 4 Peace was recently honored with a Community Champion Award by Citizens Bank, acknowledging its significant contributions to creating educational access and fostering peace through sport.
