Hillsboro Outdoor Basketball Courts

In 2017, the Hillsboro Community Foundation partnered with the City of Hillsboro and a committee of local residents in promoting and securing funding for the construction of two outdoor basketball courts in Memorial Park. 

More than $40,000 was raised by the public and funneled through the foundation for the project, including a grant from HCF in the 2018 annual grant cycle.  Local contractors and the City of Hillsboro then worked together to build the courts over the summer months.

The basketball courts are a great example of a group of citizens seeing a need and opportunity to make Hillsboro a more fun and enjoyable place to live.  Community projects such as this are just one way that HCF can help turn visions into reality.
