Ayden-Greenville
Chapter
AMB's North Carolina chapter — serving Pitt County's youth through midnight basketball, life skills education, and community safety programming in eastern NC.
AMB in Pitt County
The Ayden-Greenville Chapter serves the twin communities of Ayden and Greenville in Pitt County, North Carolina — the heart of eastern NC. Greenville, home to East Carolina University, is a growing regional hub that also faces the youth violence and opportunity challenges common to communities across rural and semi-urban America.
AMB's proven midnight basketball model arrives in Pitt County to do what it has done since 1986: turn the most dangerous hours of the night into structured, safe, life-changing programming — filling the gap between 8 PM and 1 AM when youth are most at risk.
Chapter Programs
Full-spectrum youth development programming in Ayden, Greenville, and Pitt County.
Midnight Basketball League
Competitive late-night leagues bringing structure, safety, and athletic competition to Pitt County's youth during high-risk hours.
Life Skills Workshops

GED preparation, college access guidance leveraging proximity to East Carolina University, and regional vocational training connections.
