What is The JAB cLASSIC?

The JAB Classic is an all-star charity game that unites top athletes, including NBA and international basketball players, to address racial inequality and foster community connections. 

In response to the rising hate around the world, the JAB Classic aims to use basketball as a global unifier, inspiring the next generation to lead the fight for equality within their communities and beyond.

What we are addressing:

Rising Hate & Division:

Antisemitism, racism, and discrimination are increasing. Young athletes need education and empowerment to be leaders of change.

Financial illiteracy

70% of young people lack access to financial literacy education, leaving them unprepared for real-world financial decisions.

Poor Nutrition Awareness:

Many student-athletes lack proper education on nutrition, leading to preventable health issues and performance setbacks.

Why Jab Classic:

In today’s climate of rising hate crimes, JAB Classic is essential because it uses the universal language of sports to break down barriers and bring people together. In times of increasing antisemitism, racism, and other forms of hate, it is essential to create unity, understanding, and collaboration between diverse communities.

JAB Classic does more than entertain— it actively challenges societal divisions by bringing top athletes, who are role models, together to advocate for social justice and inclusion. This game serves as a public, visible stand against hate, showing how powerful and unified communities can combat prejudice and inspire future generations.
