In 2019, the Chip Hooper Foundation chose to support the Marina High School Booster’s Club. The donation will specifically be going to the basketball program. Chip’s son, Max, who is now on the Los Angeles Lakers coaching staff, has been a basketball player his entire life and one of Max’s first basketball coaches is the head coach of Marina High School. Marina is a relatively new school, having been open just under 10 years. As a result, their facilities and equipment have lagged behind, prohibiting them from competing to the best of their abilities in basketball. They just opened their doors to their on campus basketball gym this season. Our donation will be going towards equipment that can help the players develop and improve their skills. Ultimately, we believe that this donation and partnership can make a significant impact and help the athletes in the Marina High School basketball program pursue their dreams with passion.
