The Minnesota Twins in partnership with the Boston Red Sox announced today that each club will donate $100,000 to the Southwest Florida Community Foundation to assist with hurricane relief efforts throughout Southwest Florida.
Hurricane Irma affected a majority of the state of Florida and hit the Ft. Myers area last Saturday morning. While the Twins and Red Sox facilities in Ft. Myers suffered limited wind damage there are areas of Southwest Florida that are in need of help.
All funds donated to the Southwest Florida Community Foundation will go directly to hurricane relief in areas of Southwest Florida. The Twins facility is expected to be up and running as planned for instructional league late next week.
Twins and Red Sox fans can participate in the hurricane relief efforts by donating online at floridacommunity.com/redsox-twins-fund/.
