2K Foundations, the philanthropic arm of 2K, has officially unveiled a fully refurbished basketball court at the Boys & Girls Club of San Francisco’s Excelsior Clubhouse. This newly renovated facility is set to serve as a vital hub for local youth, providing a safe and modern environment for club members and students from the adjacent SF Community School.
The Excelsior Clubhouse is a cornerstone of the neighborhood, operating more than 225 days each year and welcoming over 200 children daily between the ages of six and 18. Its programming is deeply committed to fostering healthy lifestyles, academic success, job readiness, and community engagement. This San Francisco project represents a significant milestone for 2K Foundations, which has now successfully renovated more than 56 basketball courts globally, spanning countries including Kenya, Nigeria, Japan, India, Spain, Canada, Australia, and the United States.
“2K Foundations is all about creating meaningful opportunities for the next generation, making sure kids have access to safe spaces where they can play, grow, and just be themselves,” said Ronnie Singh (aka ‘Ronnie 2K’), Head of Lifestyle & Content Marketing at 2K. “We’ve been fortunate to do this work in communities all over the world, but investing here in San Francisco, our own backyard, makes this especially meaningful.”
Rob Connolly, President of Boys & Girls Clubs of San Francisco, echoed this sentiment, noting the impact of the partnership. “We are grateful to the team at 2K Foundation for their generous support. The court is beautiful and the kids will love to play on it every day this summer. We pride ourselves on creating and maintaining safe and inspiring spaces where all kids feel a true sense of belonging, so we have loved this partnership.”
To celebrate the grand opening, 2K Foundations hosted a vibrant community event for local families, featuring a ceremonial ribbon cutting, on-court mini-games, and prizes. The event was highlighted by special guest appearances from Ronnie Singh and Golden State Warriors guard Will Richard, who joined the community to help inaugurate the state-of-the-art play space.
