Who should apply for our program support?

All youth baseball/softball-related orga­ni­za­tions in the des­ig­nated geo­graphic region are eli­gi­ble to sub­mit their request for our sup­port. MAP OF AREAS SERVED Appli­cant orga­ni­za­tions should pro­vide affil­i­a­tion infor­ma­tion relat­ing to their asso­ci­a­tion with accred­ited youth base­ball or soft­ball organizations..

In mak­ing your appli­ca­tion please con­sider the following:

• Good sports­man­ship is a cor­ner­stone in meet­ing the Foundation’s val­ues. Mutual respect is essen­tial in all life’s rela­tion­ships, let alone on the ball field. Have you taken steps to insure and pro­tect this virtue within your orga­ni­za­tion and its mem­bers, both on and off the field?
• Does your orga­ni­za­tion have a foun­da­tion of strong com­mu­nity and vol­un­teer sup­port in achiev­ing your objectives?
• Appli­cants should demon­strate the abil­ity to effi­ciently and cre­atively man­age cur­rent and future resources. We sup­port mem­bers of the base­ball com­mu­nity who cre­ate their own value to the resources we provide.

How can we max­i­mize our col­lec­tive resources?

As our orga­ni­za­tion has evolved, we have devel­oped a large Board of Providers to include busi­nesses and indi­vid­u­als will­ing to make in-kind resources avail­able. This might include local exca­va­tors, con­trac­tors, sport­ing equip­ment providers, even Major League Base­ball — indi­vid­u­als or com­pa­nies will­ing to pro­vide Friends of Base­ball with equip­ment, prod­ucts or ser­vices at a reduced cost. Appli­cant orga­ni­za­tions are wel­comed and encour­aged to pro­vide any con­tacts that might assist Friends of Base­ball, or be con­sid­ered for this Board.
