PITCCH IN FOUNDATION

THE PITCCH IN FOUNDATION WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2008. THE FIRST EVENT WAS HELD IN CLEVELAND AND INCORPORATED AS A 501(C)(3) IN 2010 BY NEW YORK YANKEES PITCHER CC SABATHIA AND HIS WIFE AMBER TO GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITIES THAT GAVE THEM SO MUCH. CC’S MOTHER, MARGIE SABATHIA-LANIER, HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN THE FOUNDATION LAUNCH.

THE FOUNDATION SHOWCASES THREE SIGNATURE PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE YOUNG PEOPLE WITH THE TOOLS TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN SCHOOL AND ON THE FIELD: THE ALL-STAR BASEBALL CLINIC, YOUTH BACKPACK PROGRAM, AND FIELD RENOVATIONS.
