ARIS BC Foundation
Beyond
The Game
Basketball has the power to connect people and create opportunity. Through the ARIS BC Foundation, we bring that power to the communities around us.
Our Purpose
Basketball With
A Wider Purpose
The Foundation is the social impact platform of ARIS BC. It brings together the club, its community and its partners around initiatives with a clear purpose and tangible benefits.
One Club.
Shared Impact.
From youth wellbeing and accessible sport to environmental responsibility and community solidarity, our ambition extends beyond the court.
Where We Focus
Our Impact
Pillars
Four strategic pillars guide the projects we develop and the community requests we consider.

Making sport and shared experiences more accessible to people at risk of exclusion.
Environment & Sustainability
Environmental action, local clean-ups, recycling and community awareness.
Community Solidarity & Volunteering
Supporting people in need through volunteering, donations and community initiatives.
Beyond The Court.
For Our Community.
The same sense of belonging that brings us together on game day can help build opportunities and make a meaningful difference in everyday life.
