Meet Vic 😀 aka corral_natural One of the most dedicated hoopbus family members who expresses his passion for basketball and art by supporting court renovations. 

“Basketball was my first love. I started playing when I was 2. I played outside in the street using a trash can 🗑 as my hoop until my mom saved up enough money to buy me a court. And even then the court was in dirt and patches of grass bc we didn’t have enough $ for concrete. 

The courts in my neighborhood were not that great. There was always a lot of drugs and gang activity in the park so it really wasn’t ideal/safe to play there. 

When I paint these courts, it makes me happy that I am bringing a safe/welcoming place where the community can be proud of and call their own and keep the hoop dream alive.” - corral_natural
