"Every family in this program has been part of building something special. Now we have the chance to make it permanent — a facility that belongs to this community, that opens its doors to every kid who wants to play baseball and become a leader on and off the field."— Anthony Gigante, Founder of Westchester GiantsVisit us at TheWYSE.orgYour gift helps us secure a true home field advantage—a safe, consistent space where our kids can practice, play, and grow together.Building More Than a Baseball Facility — Building a Community:What started as a dream to give Westchester's kids a world-class place to play is now becoming a permanent reality. Westchester Youth Sports Empowerment, WYSE, is a new nonprofit organization founded by the same people who built the Westchester Giants from the ground up — and it's powered by the same belief: that every kid deserves the opportunity to develop, compete, and grow, regardless of their family's income.We are acquiring and transforming a home base in New Rochelle into a dedicated development center — a nonprofit-owned, mission-first facility that will serve as the permanent home of the Westchester Giants and a hub for free and subsidized community programming for years to come.A Permanent Home:A fully built-out state-of-the-art baseball center with turf, tech-enabled batting cages, and training facilities — open year-round, weather-proof, and designed for elite youth development.Open to All:Scholarships, reduced-fee programs, and free community clinics/camps ensure every young athlete in Westchester has access — regardless of financial circumstances.Built to Last:Nonprofit ownership means no rent increases, no displacement.
