This season, Buses for Baseball will provide transportation and personal greetings for more than 750 underprivileged children attending Major League Baseball games as invited guests of their big league heroes. Buses for Baseball will provide many of the children with their first chance to attend a Major League Baseball game.
The Players Trust enjoys support from the Tampa Bay Rays organization in providing this unique, up close and personal opportunity to share the thrill of Major League Baseball with those less fortunate.
The YMCA of Greater St. Petersburg is committed to nurturing the potential of kids, promoting healthy living and fostering a sense of social responsibility in order to strengthen the foundations of community.
