Jason Kitts is reportedly the founder and executive director of CHB (Community Home Balance) Global Corp. It is a nonprofit wellness and community organization in Oveido. Established in 2016, one partial purpose behind this initiative was to reportedly secure some gym time for Chloe so that she could work on her basketball skills. Since It was tough to find a good court, both father and daughter started running programs for local youth to learn essential basketball basics like dribbling and shooting. Chloe herself pitched in at times, teaching younger kids the sport for two years.

Chloe Kitts’ basketball roots run deep. Her grandfather, Ron, was reportedly a state champion back in 1971. During Chloe’s early years, her grandfather taught her the ropes. After she showed an eagerness to play basketball before even hitting kindergarten, Jason took over as her coach. By four years old, she was already in love with the game.

Chloe’s mother, Krystle, maintains her privacy, so limited information is available about her. However, according to her LinkedIn profile, Krystle serves as a sales director at Abbott. On top of that, she also raises Chloe and her two sisters, Ellie and Kylee.

However, according to Pop TV Culture, Chloe’s family was part of the Church of God when she was growing up. It is a global Christian denomination known for its Holiness-Pentecostal beliefs.
