The primary focus of the organization is to use street basketball or 'streetball' as a catalyst for youth development and cultural exchange. Each month, their streetballers and g3 volunteers will be present to collect sportswear donations to be recycled (shoes, shirts, jerseys, etc.) at local parks in the Tokyo area. Donations will be gathered (approximately 3-4 times per year) and sent to Port Moresby for distribution, in partnership with the Port Moresby Rotary Club in Papua Nuew Guinea.
