A borrowed glove, two sizes too big
Hi [First name],
A lot has happened on our field since you last gave. Last spring, [Name] showed up to tryouts with a borrowed glove two sizes too big and a huge smile.
This Giving Tuesday, we're raising $1,000 for 10 loaner gear kits (helmet, glove and bat) at $100 per kit. They go to kids who can't afford their own, so every player is ready for opening day.
Would you give early, before the rush? Early gifts help us build momentum: [Donation link]
Thank you for cheering these kids on.
