What started with a broken basketball court turned into a full-blown education revolution.
Mason Smith, a father from Oregon, noticed the disrepair at his daughter’s school and decided he wasn’t going to wait for someone else to fix it. Armed with tools, time, and heart, he personally renovated the unused court—drawing in other parents, neighbors, and eventually volunteers from across the country.
His grassroots project evolved into a viral initiative that has since transformed six school facilities, involved over 50 volunteers, and inspired thousands to take ownership of their communities.
More than just a renovation—Mason’s mission is a reminder that change starts with us. Click on his name above, or here to navigate to his linker.ee - there you can explore all of Dad Social's inspiring content. Prepare to dive in for some seriously positive stories that charm the heart.
