Money raised by Bring Me Home's Wiffle Ball Tournaments will benefit Friends of Baseball and Lake Oswego Little League
Friends of Baseball was founded in 2005 by an Oregon father, son and Board of Trustees driven by their passion to give back in the form of aid and partner resources to the community of youth baseball and softball that they love. What started out as a foundation sponsored by the Oregon Sports Authority has grown into an independent 501c3 that is working in five key areas:
- Baseball-inspired academic and physical education after school and summer enrichment programs
- Scholarhips for kids to have access to play for local leagues and teams
- Training coaches to be positive mentors and providing them with resources
- Equipment and gear distribution
- Field safety and improvements
Thank You to Our Amazing Sponsors!!!
