CONCORD, CA, UNITED STATES, November 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Pacific Service Credit Union, in partnership with Basketball Nation, will host a free Hoopsgiving Basketball Clinic and ice cream social on Friday, November 13, from 5–8 p.m. at The Ultimate Fieldhouse in Walnut Creek. The event is being offered to Pacific Service CU’s nonprofit and community partners, giving children in their youth programs a chance to experience organized basketball in a setting they may not otherwise have access to.

The clinic will welcome up to 250 children ages 8–13 for an evening of basketball and fun. Pacific Service CU is helping remove financial and other barriers that can prevent children from participating in organized sports and recreational activities by working directly with nonprofit and community organizations that support local youth and families.

“Every child deserves the chance to experience the joy of playing sports, regardless of their family’s financial circumstances,” said Jenna Lampson, President and CEO of Pacific Service Credit Union. “Our nonprofit partners do incredible work supporting children and families throughout our communities. Hoopsgiving is an opportunity to build on those relationships and give kids an experience they may not otherwise have had, while creating memories, building confidence and simply having fun.”

Hoopsgiving is part of Pacific Service CU’s multiyear partnership with Basketball Nation, where the credit union serves as the Presenting Sponsor and Official Credit Union at The Ultimate Fieldhouse in Walnut Creek and Dream Courts in Pittsburg. The partnership supports a shared commitment to making youth sports more accessible through camp scholarships and providing free community programming and opportunities for children to participate regardless of financial circumstances.

The event reflects Pacific Service CU’s longstanding commitment to giving back. In 2026, the credit union was recognized as a Top Bay Area Corporate Philanthropist by the San Francisco Business Times for the 11th consecutive year, reflecting its ongoing investment in organizations supporting at-risk children, education, health and human services, and other critical community needs.

Media are invited to attend Hoopsgiving to capture basketball activities, speak with representatives from Pacific Service CU, Basketball Nation and participating nonprofit organizations, and highlight the impact of community partnerships that create opportunities for local youth.
