Our mission
The heart of our program beats for something bigger than basketball.
At Tennessee United, our mission is to live out the One More mindset by giving one more hour, one more act of kindness, and one more opportunity to those who need it most. Through hands-on community service and intentional giving, our players learn responsibility, empathy, leadership, and the power of serving others.
We believe the game is a platform—a way to impact lives, strengthen families, and bring hope to our communities. We are committed to developing young men and women who understand that true success is not defined by wins and losses, but by the lives they touch along the way.
Tennessee United gives back to the local community in a variety of meaningful ways:
Ministry Partnerships • Charitable Causes • School Basketball Sponsorships
We are proud to have partnered with impactful organizations across East Tennessee, including:
-
Second Harvest Food Bank
-
Toys for Tots
-
Backpacks for the Homeless
-
YMCA
-
Children’s Hospital
Each partnership represents a step toward our purpose:
to serve boldly, act selflessly, and create lasting change through the game we love.

We partner with organizations across East Tennessee—from Children’s Hospital to Toys for Tots, Pat Summitt Foundation, local schools, food drives, and more—to ensure our athletes grow not just as players, but as people.
We develop servant-leaders who understand that true success is measured not by points scored, but by lives impacted.
