Honoring a Legacy. Serving the Community.

The Greg Scott Foundation is a NYC-based nonprofit dedicated to empowering youth, supporting seniors, and strengthening the Tri-State area through leadership and action.

Our Origin

Carrying the Torch for a Queens Legend

Founded in 2024 by Christopher Riddick, the foundation honors the life of Greg Scott—a Jamaica, Queens native and a cornerstone of 1980s/90s NYC basketball culture.

Greg was more than an exceptional talent on the court; he was a symbol of loyalty, generosity, and an uplifting spirit. His impact didn’t end at the three-point line—it lived on in the people he mentored and the community he loved. Today, we turn that memory into a movement.

Our Core Pillars

The Greg Scott Foundation operates on the belief that a strong community is built from both ends—by guiding our youth toward the future and honoring the seniors who paved the way. Inspired by Gregg’s legendary spirit, our work focuses on three essential areas of impact:

Youth Mentorship

Empowering the next generation through leadership development and consistent positive role models. We provide the guidance and tools young people need to navigate challenges and reach their full potential.

Senior Support

Bridging the generational gap by offering vital outreach, care, and community engagement for our elders. We ensure our seniors remain connected, valued, and supported through dedicated service initiatives.

Community Programs

Strengthening the fabric of our neighborhoods through inclusive events and local initiatives that foster unity. We believe in creating a lasting impact by bringing people together to build a stronger Tri-State area.

Helping Us
You Helping Them

Every contribution you make is a direct investment in the lives of our neighbors. When you support the Greg Scott Foundation, you aren’t just donating to an organization—you are providing a mentor for a student in Queens, a helping hand for a senior in the Tri-State area, and a stronger foundation for our entire community.

Your generosity turns into real-world action. From basketball clinics that teach leadership to outreach programs that combat senior isolation, your partnership allows us to carry Greg’s legacy of service forward. Together, we can ensure that no member of our community is left behind.
