Break out the peanuts and Cracker Jack because it is Cardinals baseball season once again! The Cardinals have given us many wonderful memories over the years. Can you help us bring the simple joy of a baseball game to children who would otherwise not have the opportunity? Please consider sponsoring a ticket for one or more children as part of our annual Go to Bat for Kids event.

On Friday, June 3rd, the Cardinals will take the field against the San Francisco Giants. Children in need from our community will be able to attend with the support of individuals like you. For many of these children, this will be a rare opportunity to laugh, cheer, and simply have fun.

Last year, nearly 2,000 children were able to attend a Cardinals game thanks to the generous supporters of Catholic Charities of St. Louis. Sponsored tickets will be distributed to Catholic Charities agencies, including St. Francis Community Services, Marygrove and Good Shepherd Children & Family Services. Other St. Louis area organizations such as Big Brothers Big Sisters of Eastern Missouri, Boys & Girls Town of Missouri, and Epworth Children & Family Services also receive tickets for children in their programs.

Step up to the plate and Go to Bat for Kids. Sponsoring a child is only $26. With your support, we hope to “Go to Bat” for 2,000 children in need in our community. Click here and choose the fund Go To Bat 2016. Go Cardinals!
