A staple component of PTB includes Philanthropy; the active pursuit of bettering humanity by giving back. PTB’s initial mission included providing underprivileged youth in the Caribbean with sports equipment. As PTB’s philanthropic pursuits have expanded, they have manifested themselves into a number of projects:
- Numerous shipments of sporting equipment and clothing to youth organizations in Jamaica, including Delveland Basic School, St. Pauls Elementary, Clifton Boys Home in Darliston and Mannings High School.
- Facilitating a large shipment of sporting goods, feminine products, and food supplies to subsidize a lunch program for youth at Delveland Basic School and St. Paul’s Elementary.
- Donating almost 100 laptops to 10 different schools in rural villages in Belize.

Current project:
Our current project includes the PTB Sports Drive, in which our goal is to collect:
i) 50 soccer balls
ii) 50 basketballs
iii) 100 pairs of soccer cleats (youth-sized)
iv) 100 pairs of basketball shoes (youth sized)
We will be partnering with local Caribbean youth sports organizations to distribute these donations, as we actively collect donations in the Miami, Toronto and Montreal area.
