This is not your average night of basketball. This is a movement.
On August 1, 2026, Duffy's Hope brings together celebrities, athletes, and community leaders for one electrifying evening at Chase Fieldhouse in Wilmington, DE. Watch some of your favorite names go head-to-head on the court while raising the stakes for something far greater than a trophy.
This event is a fundraiser benefiting Duffy's Hope youth programs and our transitional housing program for young women aging out of the foster care system. These are real young people in our community who need stable ground, safe spaces, and people willing to show up for them.
Every ticket purchased, every dollar raised, and every person in that building is making a direct impact. When you show up, you are not just a fan in the stands. You are part of the solution.
Expect high energy, surprise moments, and a night that reminds you why community shows up for community.
Because at the end of the day, it has always been more than a game!
Children 3 and older are required to purchase a ticket. VIP Tickets Includes a Meet & Greet from 5:00pm - 6:00pm (Only) and Courtside seat.
Here is a small description of our program: Duffy' Hope, located in the heart of Wilmington, Delaware, is a nonprofit for at-risk and hard-to-reach youth ages 13-17. Since 2002, we have improved the quality of life for over 6,500 youth in our area and will continue to do so. Duffy’s Hope uses a HOLISTIC approach that includes 10 Core Components that not only determine the root causes of problems in the lives of at-risk youth but also address – and more importantly – help to rectify those issues. “Duffy’s Hope, Inc. envisions a world where youth take control of their lives by empowering themselves through positive thoughts and goal setting, making good choices and a perpetual desire to make the world a better place for everyone.” “Duffy’s Hope, Inc. envisions communities that engage school-aged youth with out-of-school activities providing academic help, hands-on community service, and well-roundedness through athletic involvement and health education enrichment. Duffy’s Hope, Inc. fills the gaps between home and school for youth at-promise and motivates youth to develop to their full potential.
