"I took the risk to flee South Sudan for education. In Kakuma, I found basketball—and a purpose. I started The Refugees Basketball Initiative to give refugee youth a shot at scholarships, success, and giving back to their communities." — Lich Gatkoi, Founder Refugee Basketball Initiative
Lich Gatkoi grew up in Kakuma as a South Sudanese refugee. In 2020, he The Refugees Basketball Initiative with a simple idea: if young people could share a court, they could share a future. 🏀 Now, the game is opening doors to education and opportunity for both refugees and the host community.
