Giving Options

Your Dona­tions are highly prized and greatly appre­ci­ated. We find it increas­ingly dif­fi­cult to meet the grow­ing needs of our grantees, let alone ful­fill our vision of expand­ing the regions we are able to serve in Ore­gon. If you believe in the type of pro­gram assis­tance our Board of Trustees has estab­lished and wish to par­tic­i­pate, please use the easy Pay­Pal link to the right or send your dona­tions to Friends of Base­ball, 1631 N.E. Broad­way #118, Port­land, Ore­gon 97232. All dona­tions, large and small, will help insure a level play­ing field for under­served youth in our base­ball and soft­ball Ore­gon Com­mu­ni­ties. 100% of your dona­tion is tax deductible and will be allo­cated to our work with our grantees!

Other Giv­ing Options …

This ques­tion is often asked of the founders of Friends of Base­ball. You can cer­tainly help us in many ways; first and fore­most, your enthu­si­asm itself is very reward­ing and mean­ing­ful. Should you have the inter­est in becom­ing more involved, here are a few ideas:

Help us spread the word! As an orga­ni­za­tion, we are ded­i­cated to reach­ing out to qual­i­fy­ing orga­ni­za­tions in the com­mu­ni­ties we serve that demon­strate sig­nif­i­cant need in get­ting the game on the field. Often they are also the orga­ni­za­tions that may have the most dif­fi­culty find­ing us. As a per­son with a pas­sion for youth base­ball, you can make a dif­fer­ence by assist­ing us in find­ing these wor­thy orga­ni­za­tions. Please help us by ask­ing ques­tions of those who might know, and even drop us a note if you know of an orga­ni­za­tion that may qualify!

Add a link, become a Face­book Fan! If you, or some­one you know, has a com­pany or orga­ni­za­tional web­site, we ask that you add FriendsOfBaseball.org to your site as a link. This will greatly assist us in meet­ing our grant objec­tives as well as expand­ing the reach of FOB. Also for the lat­est and ongo­ing news­feed join us as aFan on Face­book. We would be happy to for­ward a JPG file of our logo. This logo could then be used as a link to our web­site. Please con­tact us through info@friendsofbaseball.org

You can also pro­vide us with con­tacts that might be able to offer our grantees valu­able goods and ser­vices at reduced fees … or less. We are cre­at­ing a Board of Providers for com­pa­nies, orga­ni­za­tions and indi­vid­u­als who wish to assist us in this aspect of our pro­gram assis­tance. Please email us if someone/something comes to mind. This process will mul­ti­ply the value in our abil­ity to serve, allow­ing for a greater num­ber of assis­tance in our communities.

If you have media con­tacts we hope you will for­ward our story along for pos­si­ble pub­li­ca­tion. There is no greater way to reach out to oth­ers than with expo­sure in all forms. Please keep us in mind if you run into a “media type,” let them know they can help, and that we are look­ing for them!  If you have any fur­ther ques­tions, sim­ply email us as info@friendsofbaseball.org
