🔴The PlayBall08648 Mission
Our Mission is to produce quality tee ball, softball, and baseball programs that give every Township child the opportunity to have fun, make memories, and learn to play ball on a trusted hometown field. We strive to provide safe, low-pressure options that let every child try, learn, and grow. Each year, nearly 400 Township youth and their families participate in an LTJBSA program. Our staff of dedicated volunteers donate thousands of hours to produce more than 300 games and practices. Read our origin story.
🔴Supporting the LTJBSA
With your gift or sponsorship, you can enhance the ability of the LTJBSA to provide programs, upgrade or repair equipment, and defray enrollment costs for all Lawrence Township children. We are a non-profit 501-3(c) public charity that must raise over $15,000 annually to keep producing programs for Township children.
We are a proud member of the #GivingTuesday movement, which reimagines a world built upon shared humanity and generosity. We collaborate within the global GivingTuesday network collaborates year-round to help inspire generosity, with a common mission to build a world where generosity is part of everyday life.
