Hoops of Hope is the worlds largest free throw marathon all for a great cause. Participants sign up to shoot thousands of free throws during a Hoops of Hope event. Hoops of Hope events are held in various locations throughout the year. Through sponsorship, participants raise money and awareness for the thousands of children orphaned by HIV/AIDS each day. Over the past few years, participants have raised over $1M to help build a high school, a medical clinic and have funded a second clinic. In partnership with World Vision, international relief organization, in 2009, our goal is to build dorms for the school as well as hope centers for orphan children in Swaziland.

hey Austin, i wonder if you remember me! :) the Revolve Tour in Norman, Oklahoma! My friends and i were walking down the aisle and yelled at you and asked to take a picture with us :) i love this picture! every time i look at it i remember all the videos, inspiring words, the love you have for God and others, and what impact you have on the world. Your story has really gotten to me. i am going to adopt a child for my Christmas present! i really can't wait. do you ever have that feeling like something is just so exciting and you just keep smiling because you know that God is great and that he can make all of this happen! i am a 13 year old girl and i just want to say THANK YOU! God has big plans for you. I pray that GOD BLESSES YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!! I'm praying for you! :) love always -Kenzie.

Austin, you are an amazing inspiration to me and my friends, so we are trying to get hoops of hope at our local high school and middle school... You are so AMAZING! Just that you are like, so caring that you have a big enoguh heart for everyone in the world and ur just fourteen!(i think... heheh) Anyway, my friends and I saw you at the Revolve in Hartford [[I cried everytime you came on because i felt so bad for the poor kids. ): ]], and we sort of wrote you a letter and left it in the room you guys went into after the signing autogrpahs a couple of hours ago.... :] it basically says what i just said but it was short notice so its not as detailed as this. haha. anyway, we'll see how hoops of hope goes for my town, and maybe we can raise money for the children too! God bless you!!!!!!!!! <3

Hey, Austin, if you're reading this, we actually met at Portland, OR, in the 2nd signing line. We had a 6-second conversation, and while I didn't get to have a nice long conversation with you or hug you like I had wanted to last year, I at least got to say thank you. Not only thank you for the autograph, but thank you for inspiring me to do something bigger than myself. I never thought I could do it, I'm only a kid, but then I heard about you at Revolve 2008, and knowing that you are my age and able to make such an impact really hit home with me. Over the past year, I've been making an impact in ways I never thought I could. I'm morbidly shy; yet because I decided to make myself willing after hearing about you, I've been doing so much more than I ever thought I could. So, thank you for inspiring us crazy Revolve Tour girls, and God bless you. I'm so glad He brought you into my life.

See you in 2011,
DwarfPrincess

i am halfway through the book that you signed for me.
revolve changed my entire view on god.

i was at the orlando show. when i went to the table to get a signing ticket, i picked up a chad ticket. then i tried to get your ticket and the lady said i could only get one. later that day, during the 3rd intermission, i was standing in front of a merchandise booth and a man wearing a backstage pass came up to me and asked me if i'd gotten your book signed. of course, i replied no. then he asked me if i wanted to get it signed and i said yes.
a few minutes later i found out he was your dad.
thank you for signing my book. you probably don't remember me, but my name is sam. [your dad couldn't figure out how to turn on my camera :) ]. It ment the world to me because out of the thousands of girls in that arena that had your book, your dad saw me. You are an amazing guy and your book is awesome too. can't wait to see you at revolve again next year.
-Sam
