Matthew 13:57 – It means people closest to a person; neighbors, family, and friends often fail to recognize their value or wisdom due to familiarity. This skepticism frequently limits an individual’s impact in their hometown.
Jesus used this when his own people in Nazareth were amazed by his teaching but still refused to believe in him because they knew his family.
We are empowering the next generation through strategic partnerships and community-driven initiatives. With top companies by our side, we’ve successfully delivered children’s books to 22 states and hosted basketball camps for thousands of youngsters in Kansas. For over a decade, we’ve also provided lunch for students and their families, underscoring our commitment to nurturing young minds and fostering a brighter future.
To know DJ Fisher is to know a man fueled by passion, guided by purpose, and intentional in everything he does. His results-driven mindset, combined with a genuine commitment to people and community, defines both his leadership and his legacy.
This summer, the city comes together for Just A Kid From Wichita™ Weekend. A powerful celebration of youth, opportunity, and hometown pride.
The weekend begins with the Youth Sports Summit, where athletes, parents, and coaches learn the game beyond the game. Then it’s time for the 10th Annual Youth Basketball Camp, inspiring the next generation of players right here on Wichita courts. Later, we celebrate the people who make it all possible with an exclusive Cocktail Party for Sponsors and Parents.
Then we will close the weekend in style with a throwback Adult Skate Night; music, fun, and community.
Because every legend starts somewhere…And sometimes that somewhere is right here. Sponsorship is still available.
