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.

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.

Hi Austin you probably dont remember me because you see so many people a day so, but ummmmm...... I went to the table to but your book at girls revolve and you wrote to breana, take your best shot, austin gutwein. those 4 words mean alot to me because it makes me feel that even though im a kid i know i can make a difference just like you, and when i help people i dont just do it to make my self feel good i do it to make the other people feel good and thats all that counts. I just wanted to say i want to make a difference and i know i will because i have my church, youth group, and friends bye my side, oh and GO HOOPS OF HOPE!

man austin i love this. i love what you're doing. my youth pastor gave me a copy of your book and it's amazing. i also have a passion for orphans. it's a long story but ukraine orphans are on my heart. 80% of the girls that are orphaned in Ukraine turn to prostitution for survival because after they're 16 they're kicked out onto the streets with the equivalent of 200 US dollars.
