Pabineau First Nation Brings the Game to Families: Over 20 Homes Receive Basketball Hoops and Basketballs
At Pabineau First Nation, we believe in the power of community and the positive impact of sports on our youth and families. That’s why we are thrilled to share that we have been able to provide basketball hoops and basketballs to over 20 local families in our community.
This initiative has been a great way for us to bring more opportunities for physical activity and fun into the homes of our families, offering both children and adults a chance to enjoy the sport, stay active, and create lasting memories together.
The Importance of Sports in Our Community
In smaller communities like ours, access to recreational activities is essential for building a sense of connection, wellness, and fun. Sports, especially basketball, can foster teamwork, discipline, and a sense of belonging. By providing these resources to our families, we hope to encourage healthy living, family play, promote social connections, and give our youth positive outlets to engage with one another.

A Big Thank You to the Chaleur Community Youth Fund
A heartfelt thank you to the Chaleur Community Youth Fund for their generous support in helping us find the funding necessary to make this initiative possible. Without their assistance, this project wouldn’t have been a reality. Their commitment to supporting youth programs in our region has made a huge difference, and we are grateful for their partnership in making Pabineau First Nation a stronger, healthier community.
Looking Ahead
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported this initiative, and to the Pabineau First Nation leadership for making it possible. The smiles on the faces of the families receiving their new basketball hoops and basketballs are a reminder of the positive impact we can make when we work together for the well-being of our community.
This is just one of the many ways we continue to build a strong, connected, and healthy community in Pabineau First Nation.
