Our Story

Played hard. Built smart.

Salem, Oregon, made him. College ball sharpened him. Then the game took him everywhere — Europe, Africa, and now Mexico's LNBP, where he suits up for Fuerza Regia de Monterrey.

Off the court, Avry's building a second career as a construction and development entrepreneur — running projects with the same discipline he brings to the game. Two careers, one mindset. Discipline on the court, precision on the jobsite, and a business mind running both.

The Foundation is where all three meet — a game plan, a budget, and a bench of partners — aimed at the community that raised him and the one that gave him a court.

Avry Holmes  ·  Founder & President
“Salem is home. Monterrey is where I play. This Foundation is how I show up for both — the same way I'd show up for a game: prepared, and all the way in.” Avry Holmes, Founder
Who We Serve

The community at the center.

Every program traces back to underserved and immigrant children, youth, and families — in Salem, Oregon, the neighborhood that raised the Foundation's founder, and in Monterrey, México, the community that welcomed him onto its court. The work is practical first: meet the immediate need, then build toward long‑term confidence and success.

01

Kids & Youth

Access to sports, mental health support, and education programs that build confidence on and off the court.

02

Families

Food, clothing, and health & wellness resources that meet real, immediate circumstances — no red tape, no judgment.

03

Community Partners

Schools, food banks, health services, and retailers on both sides of the border — the Foundation is built to be a strategic partner, not a solo act.

Salem & Monterrey

Two cities. One Foundation.

Salem raised him. Monterrey welcomed him. The Foundation shows up in both — with clinics, family resources, and community programs during the LNBP season and year‑round, in partnership with Fuerza Regia de Monterrey.
