Hoops for peace | 31

As Hoops for Peace entered its 31st year, the stakes were higher and the message more urgent: bring together community, youth leadership, and public safety stakeholders for a weekend of unity, empowerment, and action. With increased visibility, expanded partnerships, and elevated expectations, organizers needed operational precision behind the scenes.

Choice Habit LLC served as the strategic anchor for Hoops for Peace 31, delivering targeted procurement coordination, vendor compliance oversight, and logistical advisory across all phases of the event lifecycle. We supported the integration of new partners, coordinated communication between city officials and local vendors, and helped refine event policies to ensure both accessibility and accountability.

Our team developed and implemented checklists, intake forms, vendor compliance trackers, and budget alignment tools that improved transparency and audit readiness. We also provided pre-event planning support, on-site operational check-ins, and post-event debrief tools to help the organizing team collect lessons learned and prepare for future growth.

Hoops for Peace 31 not only delivered an inspiring event experience but also set a new standard for how grassroots community events can be scaled with compliance in mind. Choice Habit’s behind-the-scenes structure allowed the leadership team to focus on what mattered most—youth engagement, public trust, and community healing—while ensuring every dollar and detail was handled with intention.
