Their mission is to provide opportunities for children that will have a lasting effect on their life. When these kids get off of the plane, they will immediately become aware that they are in a very different place and among unfamiliar people.

We use baseball to bridge cultural gaps. The life lesson for the kids is that, by finding common ground, relationships can be forged with anyone. They achieve their mission by focusing on the following efforts (click on any of the following links for more detail about that initiative): Scholarships for American and Dominican youth baseball players to participate in an international baseball exchange.
