A Special Thank You to Captain of the Sea!
We are grateful to Captain of the Sea for their continued sponsorship of the Neal Dobbins Restorative Basketball Program!
At MVP, we believe in feeding our youth in more ways than one — with knowledge, love, encouragement, and nutritious meals.
Food insecurity is a real challenge for many families in our community, and ensuring that our young people have something to eat is an important part of our program.
Thanks to generous community partners like Captain of the Sea, we can continue creating a safe, supportive environment where our youth can learn, grow, build relationships, and enjoy a good meal.
We’re not just feeding our youth today — we’re helping nourish their future!
Thank you, Captain of the Sea, for investing in our young people and our community. Your generosity makes a difference, and we truly appreciate you!

Thank You, Leveling the Playing Field – Western New York/Buffalo!
MVP is grateful to Leveling the Playing Field – Western New York/Buffalo for their generous donation of sports equipment and apparel for our youth.
Their support will help our young people enjoy and participate in basketball while also giving them opportunities to be introduced to and explore other sports. By expanding access to equipment and athletic experiences, they are helping our youth discover new interests, build confidence, stay active, and learn about opportunities they may not otherwise have had access to.
We truly appreciate their investment in our youth and their commitment to helping us create more opportunities for the young people we serve.
Thank you for helping MVP level the playing field for our youth!

MVP would like to extend our sincere appreciation to Donald Blank, a filmmaker and author from Buffalo, NY, for his continued support of our organization and the young people we serve.
Donald has generously supported MVP through monetary donations as well as clothing for our youth to use for job interviews and other important opportunities. These contributions have provided our young people with resources that can help them feel confident and prepared as they take steps toward employment and independence.
We are truly grateful for Donald’s generosity, encouragement, and willingness to invest in our youth and our mission. We appreciate all that he has done to support MVP and the families we serve.
Thank you, Donald, for believing in our youth and helping us create opportunities for them to succeed. We wish you continued success in all that you do!
