Social Media
By utilizing our social media platforms, we will help showcase an up and coming brand/business. We will be spreading our love to future entrepreneurs and encourage those that are passionate about their crafts around the world.
The selected business for that month will donate three products of their choice to contribute in our monthly raffle that participants can simply enter by: following both pages on Instagram, liking the post, and tagging three friends to the post.

Every year the PUSO Family uses its proceeds from our annual Swish 4 A Wish basketball tourney to host a "Thanksgiving Turkey Day Assist" for the underserved community in the Washington D.C. Metro Area. Since the launch of this program we have served approximately 200 families currently living in homeless shelters by providing freshly cooked Thanksgiving meals, warm gloves, haircuts, surprise presents for the kids, and most importantly our time and care.

Valentines Day
“Love is born through the giving of kindness.”
Our PUSO family spent our Valentine’s Day weekend delivering baked bbq chicken + pork buns, shortbread cupcakes, donuts, bagels, and cookies to doctors, nurses, nurse assistants, physicians, and other incredible frontline hospital workers.

Our annual Christmas Project! We held a fundraising gig where the price of admission was a gift donation. The event was open to the public to enjoy music from local artists as well as getting to personally choose and wrap your gifts. Two days later, we went on a distribution tour where we provided games and entertainment for children in need. We were able to give presents away to over 400 kids from abuse/abandonment homes and public day care centers.

Youth Athletic Program
The PUSO Foundation’s Youth Athletic Program is our very first ongoing and sustainable project. Our initiative aims to provide physical education, sports, necessary equipment, coaching, and any necessary equipment to designated communities and institutions. Our first endeavour is in partnership with the Espoir NGO community and the Espoir primary school.
Heart For The Holidays
Inspiring the future generations of our world to give generously.
Our Heart For The Holidays donation drive was a huge success! We are thankful for our partnership with Browne Academy and look forward to working with them again next year to give back to communities in need in the D.C. area.
We challenge everyone to give back in their own way this holiday season. Lend a hand whenever you can however you are able to, no matter how small. We promise...You will not regret it!
Hoops for Hope
Basketball is more than just a game.
Here’s to the life lessons that’ll be learned, the bonds that’ll be built, and the lives that’ll forever be connected for generations to come at our first Hoops For Hope community basketball court!
Special thank you to Bayanngros for being our official sponsor for this event! Couldn’t have created this once in a lifetime experience for the community without your generosity!
William Yancy Project
On September 11, 2006, William was suddenly born at 26 weeks weighing only 1lb-14 oz. He was immediately diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Doctors promised his parents he would die within a week. Thirty surgeries and 12 years later, William is a light - shining on the world around him. He’s extremely bright, energetic, and witty.
After losing his long time dog and best friend Zeke back in 2018, a large hole was placed in William's life. We decided use the money raised from our 2019 "Devotion and Motion" to surprise William with a brand new puppy named "Curry" for the 2019 Holidays! Check out the surprise below!
