Mission

Provide educational and recreational opportunities for children in the greater Reading, Pennsylvania area and Berks County, and provide financial assistance to charitable organizations in the Reading area serving underprivileged and disadvantaged youth and their families.

Programs

3 programs

In December 2018, Baseballtown Charities undertook a new challenge to help individuals showing promise in the sports of baseball and softball improve their skills. Rip It for Life selects kids that may not have the economic wherewithal to get top notch baseball and softball training. We identify players who have the desire to be better, but would not otherwise have access to the type of instructors and facilities that Rip It for Life can provide. We give these players a chance to be better, on the field and off. And off the field, Rip It for Life can provide an additional shoulder to lean on when necessary. Rip It for Life believe socio-economic challenges should not be an impediment to their journey to be better players and better people.

Expenses: $179K

Started a program in 2021 in field renovation to assist children's baseball leagues in getting their fields in shape to play baseball. Part of our commitment was setting them up with a professional turf management company for renovation and volunteers to assist in the clean up and renovation, working with the professional groundskeeper for the local AA Minor League Baseball team in getting the fields ready for play.

Grants to other organizations furthering our mission.
