PIRATES IN THE COMMUNITY

The mission of Pirates Charities is to strengthen the community by supporting organizations and programs aimed at improving the lives of children and adults.

Pirates Baseball Summer Camps offer young ballplayers the unique opportunity to learn new skills through the official Pirates Camp curriculum and get closer to the team they love! Join us for nonstop baseball fun with an emphasis on teamwork, attitude, and healthy competition.

Supported by Neal and Becca Huntington

Action Math Baseball is an integrated math program for students in grades 4-8.

Students learn mathematics skills through baseball statistics in a way that is fun and engaging, and use statistics from current Pirates Players, as well as player cards they create, to compete against one another in simulated baseball games.

In 2019, for the third consecutive year, MLB and its Clubs raised awareness for the fight against childhood cancer. The Pirates and Sports Clips hosted a head shaving event with players, coaches and front office employees. In addition, Pirates Charities and PNC hosted a "Superhero-themed" V.I.P. Party for children and their families battling pediatric cancer.

The Pitch for Hope Women's Baseball Clinic, a unique on-field experience for women ages 14 and older, will take place on Sunday, September 8, 2019 at PNC Park. Participants can learn hitting, pitching, fielding and more techniques from the Pirates coaching staff!

After the clinic, participants and their guests can enjoy a private brunch in the Picnic Park hospitality space of PNC Park.
