Overview

Mission

What it reported doing in 2020

The Skeeters Baseball Foundation promotes youth education and healthy activities for culturally, racially and economically diverse populations in Fort Bend County and the surrounding areas. Our goal is to reward the kindness and support of the community by making a difference in the lives of children. By providing a number of opportunities for vulnerable populations, we are taking away the sting of isolation and welcoming them wholeheartedly to join their community.The Skeeters Baseball Foundation awards annual grants to those qualified 501(c)(3) organizations such as Access Health, Achieve Fort Bend County, Alief YMCA, The Arc of Fort Bend County, Boys & Girls Club and others that meet the criteria set out in our mission statement. The Skeeters Foundation administers the 50/50 raffle program at each home game. The raffle rules are such that the winner receives half of the overall nightly jackpot, 10% goes to run the program and the remaining 40% is used for Foundation programs such as grants, ticket giveaways, etc.We believe that by providing these services, we can bridge the divide in our community. It is our belief that all children should have access to healthy, safe, and engaging activities.
