In this episode of Changemakers Among Us, we meet the founder of Courts for Kids, a nonprofit that has partnered with over 250 communities worldwide to co-build sports courts that do far more than host games. They become gathering places, cultural bridges, and symbols of what’s possible.
Derek shares how a chance email led to his first international build, what it means to serve with humility, and how one determined teenager reminded him just how much a court can mean to a community.
From post-war Bosnia to remote villages in Kenya, we explore the power of showing up, the beauty of grassroots momentum, and why full cultural immersion is at the heart of every Courts for Kids project.
Listen in—and find out how sports courts are unlocking confidence, connection, and hope around the world.
