Mission

Our goal is to give everybody an opportunity to play baseball, have fun and learn about teamwork. We have been blessed with this privilege, but we know many people around the world haven’t been, so we want to give back to those in need. We plan to do this by collecting old and used baseball equipment within our community or purchasing new equipment with donation money and sending them to less fortunate areas where they can't afford equipment. 

We are currently partnering with Pitch in For Baseball & Softball. 

Pitch in For Baseball & Softball launches over 100 projects globally each year, and helps communities all over the world; such as in the Philippines, Dominican Republic, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Afghanistan, and many more places which can be seen in their website.  

How You can Help

Collection booths will be set up around La Cañada throughout the year, where you can drop off used or new baseball equipment. All donated equipment will be cleaned and vetted and then provided to Pitch in for Baseball and Softball or other deserving organizations with global reach. They will then send that equipment to communities with children in need around the world.
