ACCESSIBLE RECREATION

Their Opportunity

Their Opportunity is a grassroots charity in Durham that exists to provide low-income families (total household income of $45 000 or less) with the means to enroll their children in organized sports and recreation programs. Additionally, within the 3 months of receiving funding, each child is mandated to “pay-it-forward” through their Giveback Program. Their program inspires hope while teaching essential life skills of teamwork and compassion; proving that only one change in a child’s life can create an opportunity for inspiration and change, while further impacting our community.
