Parenting the Dream: Women Winning On and Off the Court

MPBP, Inc. is proud to present Parenting the Dream: Game Changers — Women Who Play to Win, a virtual event bringing together women who lead with purpose, passion, and power.


Join us on May 5th at 6:30 PM Central / 7:30 PM Eastern for an inspiring conversation about what it means to win — not just on the basketball court, but in our communities, our families, and our lives.


Moderating this powerful discussion is Alberder Gillespie, a dynamic civic leader, coalition builder, and advocate for justice whose work has spanned politics, civil rights, and community empowerment. A Mississippi native shaped by a family legacy of service, Gillespie has spent decades championing the voices of those who are too often unheard — and she brings that same energy and conviction to every room she enters. Her deep ties to the basketball community make her the perfect voice to guide this conversation.


At MPBP, Inc., we know that the mothers behind the players are game changers in their own right. This event is a celebration of that truth — and an invitation to reflect on the courage, sacrifice, and vision it takes to raise champions.


This is a virtual event. Scan the QR code or click this link to register and join us on May 5.

We'll see you there.

Summer League

From pampering at Macy’s to empowering young athletes at our FREE Basketball Skills Camp, this summer has been all about impact, outreach, and recruiting powerful moms into our movement! 💪🏾👑


On Monday, July 14th, our MPBP, Inc. moms showed up strong in Las Vegas:

🏀 We partnered with Courtside Moms Media and Vegas for Athletes to host a free youth basketball clinic and heart screenings at Whitney Rec Center — creating a safe, educational, and fun space for kids ages 6–14.

🫶🏾 We also invited local moms to our Drafted & Determined Meet & Greet at Lexie’s Bistro — building bonds, sharing stories, and welcoming new members into our growing sisterhood.


And that’s not all—our moms made time to support one another with a pampering day at Macy’s and recruiting efforts throughout Summer League to bring more amazing mothers into the fold.


We’re not just raising athletes—we’re raising leaders, building community, and standing together in purpose.

All-Star Mothers & Mother Figures Brunch  During the 2026 NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles, MPBP members gathered at the LA Clippers' All-Star Mothers and Mother Figures Brunch — a special celebration honoring the women behind the players. Hosted by the LA Clippers organization at the iconic Intuit Dome, the morning brought together mothers and caregivers for a time of connection, fellowship, and reflection rooted in faith and purpose. The event was made even more memorable by the presence of special guests Mrs. Michelle Obama and Serena Williams, both of whom spoke to the power and sacrifice of the NBA mom community. It was a beautiful reminder of the role these incredible women play in shaping the lives and careers of professional athletes.
