Great news: We're Baa-aaaack!

You may have noticed the Pay It 4ward foundation has been a little quiet on our website, but that doesn’t mean we stopped making big noise in our community.

The foundation is still helping, still hosting, and still supporting. You know how we do!

Read on to catch up with all the good we’re doing in our corner of the world.


Scholarship Winners!

We are very pleased to present to you the winners of the 2020, 2021, and 2022 Pay It 4ward scholarship!

The Giving Season…

This past holiday season we helped two families in need have a fruitful Thanksgiving and a very Merry Christmas. Your donations allowed us to provide meals, toys, and household items, and no doubt created happy memories for members of our community.

We are incredibly grateful for your support and look forward to continuing this work in the future.


Who’s House? Creighton’s House

After a brief hiatus and a little road trip, last summer we brought the PayIt4Ward basketball tournament back to Creighton’s House - Wilcox High! And it felt so good to be back home!

This was also our first ever co-ed tournament and it was awesome to see everyone raining buckets in the Santa Clara heat!

Representing for the Girl’s teams:

  • Former Presentation Girls/Homestead

  • Wilcox

  • Kings Academy

  • Mills

  • Monta Vista

  • Leland

  • Milpitas

  • Mission San Jose

And for the Boy’s teams:

  • Monta Vista

  • Homestead

  • Fremont

  • Kings Academy

Thanks so much to all of the refs and staff who donate their time and energy to this wonderful event. And special thanks to the coaches and teams who came out and put on a show!

That’s it for now! Stay tuned to find out more about this year’s tournament and scholarship winners. And if you’d like to help us keep this good thing going, find out how you can donate here.
