Dankind Academy is a humanitarian project inspired by the work of former NBA players Luol Deng and Manute Bol using education, basketball and construction as vehicles for progress in East Africa. With a purpose built basketball facility in Kampala, Uganda and close to the world's newest nation we can educate, mentor and train talented student-athletes on full athletic scholarships. We want our hig

h school graduates to become professionals and if possible use their height and athleticism to become professional basketball players who are also charitable role models dedicating 10% of their future earnings to create a bright future for the next generation. Our ultimate goal is to build preplanned communities for refugees wanting to return to South Sudan and develop the nation while also creating cities to accommodate the homeless and those subject to adverse poverty in East Africa. This movement will be led by the players we train and will be completed by those who want to join our cause and help create a society where an adequate standard of living, relevant education and green energy environment is available to all while including basketball and healthy lifestyle as a fundamental part of the new culture in East Africa. The academy was originally based in Nairobi, Kenya and established in 2012. Since the first of two very successful year when the boys lived in a house together, trained every week and were crowned Nairobi Basketball Association Champions many have acquired scholarships to continue their higher education in the USA, Spain, Japan and Uganda with hopes of going Pro.
