CARE. ACT. INSPIRE.
Because of their caring and commitment to people
in need, Major League Baseball players formed the
Players Trust, a charitable foundation that was
the first of its kind in professional sports.
Through the Players Trust, Major Leaguers contribute
their time, money and celebrity to support issues
affecting those in need and to inspire others to become
involved in their own communities.
Since 1996, the Players Trust has distributed more
than $22.5 million to 807 charities around the world.
