    Warm greetings! I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation that brought a smile to my face on this morning. Your support towards our mission to make a positive impact on the lives of vulnerable teens in New York City is deeply appreciated.

    Our team has been working tirelessly since 2014 to provide a safe and friendly after-school activity for our students. Our goal is to create a community where young people from diverse backgrounds can come together and form bonds through shared interests. Many of our students come from lower-income households and face unique challenges, such as language barriers, limited family support, and the hardships of living apart from loved ones. Our aim is to offer them a positive outlet through our baseball program and provide them with a sense of belonging.

    Your donation will help us create this safe and inclusive space for our students. It will go a long way in ensuring that we can provide the necessary resources to make their experience on the baseball diamond a memorable one. On behalf of the teens we serve, I want to express my heartfelt thanks for your generosity. You have made a real difference in their lives and we are honored to have you as a supporter of our mission.

    Thank you once again for your kindness and generosity. Your contribution truly means the world to us!”

  • Pitchers Pocket 2023

    Funded Aug 3, 2023

    Warm greetings!

    I hope this message finds you in high spirits. Today, I felt compelled to reach out and extend my deepest appreciation for your generous donation, which not only warmed my heart but has left a lasting impression on our community.

    Since 2014, our team has been fervently committed to providing a safe, nurturing after-school activity for our students. Through our initiative, we aim to cultivate a community wherein young individuals from a myriad of backgrounds can converge, forge connections, and grow through shared interests. A substantial number of our students hail from lower-income households and grapple with distinct challenges—be it language barriers, limited familial support, or the emotional strain of being distanced from their dear ones. We continually strive to provide them with a constructive outlet via our baseball program and hope to instill in them a profound sense of belonging.

    Your generosity has not only aided our mission but has also enabled us to acquire the Pocket Pitching Net for our players—a tool that will undoubtedly enrich their training sessions and enhance their baseball experience. This equipment will not only serve as a tangible testament to your generosity but also as a daily reminder of the kindness of supporters like you who enable us to continually elevate our program's offerings.

    On behalf of every teen under our wing, I want to convey our sincere gratitude. Your selfless act has paved the way for meaningful, tangible change in their lives, and we are deeply honored to count you among our valued supporters.

    Once again, thank you for your magnanimity and unwavering belief in our cause. Your contribution is immeasurable, and its impact will be felt for years to come.”

  • Baseball Gloves 2024

    Funded Sep 10, 2023

    Warm greetings!

    I hope this message finds you in the best of spirits. I felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude this morning when I was informed about your generous donation. It's supporters like you that make our mission of impacting the lives of vulnerable teens in New York City possible, and for that, we are deeply appreciative.

    Our dedicated team has been working relentlessly since 2014 to establish a nurturing after-school environment for our students. We envision a community where young individuals, regardless of their backgrounds, can find common ground and form lasting bonds through shared passions. It's worth noting that many of our students hail from lower-income households, grappling with unique challenges. These range from language barriers, limited familial support to the emotional toll of living away from close ones. Through our baseball program, we aim to offer these teens a beacon of hope, a positive diversion, and most importantly, a place they can call home.

    I am especially thrilled to share that your donation enabled us to procure the (2) Marucci Acadia M-Type Baseball Glove Series. These gloves are a testament to your generosity, and I assure you, they will bring immense joy and elevate the playing experience for our young baseball enthusiasts. Such specialized equipment goes a long way in boosting the morale of our players and making them feel truly professional.

    On behalf of all the teens we support, I extend our profound thanks for your magnanimity. Your gesture has not only provided them with top-notch baseball gear but has also instilled in them a renewed sense of confidence and purpose. Having you as a supporter of our mission is truly an honor.

    Thank you, once again, for your unparalleled kindness and generosity. Your contribution is a beacon of hope for us, and for the many lives we touch, it's nothing short of transformative.”

When I was hired as a social studies teacher at The Williamsburg High school for Arts & Technology in Brooklyn, New York in the fall of 2014, we didn't have a baseball team. I didn't really understand why. Perhaps it was because we're a small school that shares our building with two other excellent schools, The Brooklyn Latin school and Lyons Community school, that a baseball team never got off the ground. Nevertheless, it dawned on me that this was my chance to do something I both love and could share with our students after school in safe and caring environment. Our mission in establishing this page is to get our boys the gear they need to be successful on the field, and for that we need your help. Please donate to our cause and thanks for the love.
