Who We Are
Ballforlives was started in the spring of 2006 with our first video, “The Crossover Sequence.” Our desire is to use basketball to raise awareness and money to help kids around the world in poverty. By saving people's lives, we look for opportunities to share the message of abundant life found only in knowing Jesus Christ. With the global popularity of basketball, the potential is unending, and the possibilities are endless. Our goal only begins with helping these people ourselves. We want to mobilize churches and people to take action. We are expecting God to use us to save the lives and souls of countless people!
My name is Dan Occhiogrosso, and this is my vision. To read about my past and how God has used the game of basketball to change my life forever, read my first article, “Is hard work worth it?”
