Fundraiser tournament with Heat’s Jones

Teaming again with James Jones of the Miami Heat, the third KQ Cares Charity Youth Basketball Tournament is March 17 at The Broward College Central Campus Gymnasium in Davie.

They will have T-shirts and certificates for each child. There will be raffles, giveaways and guest speakers, encouraging attendees to support the homeless cause and the organizations and sponsors who help KQ continue to help others.

KQ Cares is an approved 501c3, nonprofit organization dedicated to helping the homeless and less fortunate of South Florida.

At just 7-years-old, Kymani Quarrie decided to help the homeless after seeing a group of them sleeping on the streets in Miami. When his mom, Tania, contacted several organizations and shelters for the homeless, they said he was too young to help.

In January 2010, Kymani and Tania began KQ Cares.

Two years later, at age 9, Kymani’s commitment is unwavering. They’ve helped provide more than 2,000 meals to homeless men, women and children. They’ve provided hygiene products and daily essentials that are sometimes taken for granted. During the 2010 holiday season, they also helped give gifts and toys to more than 400 less fortunate children. In the 2011 holiday season, they collected 100s of lip balms to help put smiles on the faces of men, women and children.

And they want to do more, making a difference in the lives of many who feel they are forgotten.

Their first fundraising effort was a Youth Basketball Tournament. They had more than 75 children participate with more than 150 spectators. In 2011, those numbers increased, and they anticipate an upward trend.

“Our kids were so excited to be able to do what they love — playing basketball — while knowing they were helping to raise money to feed the homeless,” Tania said in an email.
