OAKLAND, Calif. — The Oakland A’s will celebrate Oakland’s culture and community during 510 Weekend, May 7 to 9, during a three-game series at the Coliseum versus the Tampa Bay Rays. The weekend-long celebration comes ahead of 510 Day, the unofficial May 10 holiday – a nod to the 510 area code – that celebrates the unique culture, history, and art of Oakland. The weekend will include an Oakland hat giveaway, donations to local community organizations, and more. 

510 WEEKEND DONATIONS: The Oakland A’s Community Fund will donate $2,500 each to five organizations in the Oakland community: 

• LoveLife Foundation, an organization that empowers youth in Oakland to make alternative choices to violence. 
• Bay Area Community Services (BACS), an organization that provides innovative behavioral health and housing services for teens, adults, and their families across the Bay Area. 
• Building Opportunities for Self-Sufficiency (BOSS), an organization that houses individuals with mental illness and further develops solutions to mass homelessness, mass incarceration, and community violence. 
• Friends of Lincoln Square Park, an intergenerational volunteer group dedicated to improving the heart of the Oakland Chinatown community. 
• Youth ALIVE!, an organization that saves lives by preventing violence, intervening in moments of crisis, and healing the trauma violence causes. 

TEACHER APPRECIATION NIGHT: The A’s will cap off Teacher Appreciation Week, presented by Ross Dress for Less, with Teacher Appreciation Night at the Coliseum on Friday, May 7.
