🏀 Shoot Baskets Not Bullets Part II was more than a basketball event.

COSA was proud to partner with local organizations in Dallas County to provide a safe, positive environment where young people could connect, compete, and learn about the importance of making healthy choices. Through friendly competition, community engagement, and access to valuable prevention resources, the event encouraged participants to choose opportunity over violence and teamwork over conflict.

A heartfelt thank you to all of our community partners, volunteers, and everyone who helped make this event a success. Together, we're creating safer communities, empowering our youth, and proving that every positive connection makes a difference.

💙 Together, we choose hope. Together, we choose prevention.

Every veteran's journey is unique, and so is the strength they carry.

Through creativity, passion, and perseverance, healing can take many forms. Today, we're proud to celebrate one of our local veterans showcasing his incredible artwork at the Vet Center. He serves a reminder that there are endless possibilities beyond life's many challenges.

At COSA, our Hope for Heroes program is committed to supporting veterans and their families by connecting them with resources, encouragement, and opportunities to thrive. Because every veteran deserves hope, purpose, and a community that believes in them.
