Take Me Out to the Ball Game Foundation
is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization started in 2007 and operated solely by volunteers and through donations made by our generous community. Our vision is to create and fund events for children who have been affected by physical or sexual abuse and parental alcohol and/or drug abuse. Take Me Out to the Ballgame has succeeded in creating events for these kids and their families, including bringing them to Yankees, Mets, Rangers and Knicks Games, on visits to Adventureland, fishing trips, hosting our annual Christmas party, and by providing hundreds of families turkeys and more each Thanksgiving.
Thank you messages from families recently supported by TMOTBG:
“Times have been a little extra hard lately, normally hard but just getting the bare essentials are difficult lately. Never could I afford to take my family to Adventureland but your generous donations was a true gift. It was a beautiful day, I can’t tell you when the last time I saw my children smile so much and just have fun and forgot the sadness and struggles we have endured . My face actually hurts from smiling. Not everyone has a generosity and kindness that you have shown and it was extremely wonderful to teach and show my children that in the world we live in today there are still such people. We are forever thankful and promise that one day we will pay it forward. Thank you.”
“Dear Jackie & the Yes Community,
We wanted to thank you all so much for the tickets to Adventureland. We had an amazing time! The food was great too!! We spent 7 hours there and still had to drag the girls out at closing. Lol 😁 It was so nice having that family time.
Many thanks again,
The XXX Family”
