History:
The PitCCh In Foundation was established in 2008 with its first event in Cleveland and incorporated as a 501(c)(3) in 2010 by New York Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia and his wife Amber to help the communities that have given them so much. With the support of CC’s mother, Margie Sabathia-Lanier, and a dedicated team of professional staff and volunteers, the foundation showcases three signature programs that provide young people with the tools to be successful in school and on the field: All-Star Baseball Clinic, Youth Backpack Program, and Field Renovations. CC and Amber were motivated by not only the idea of giving back but by developing a long term platform with the foundation to provide young people with the belief in their abilities and to make their dreams become a reality.
Our Foundations Impact:
-2011: The All-Star Baseball clinic was on the west coast with over 1,500 kids. The backpack program was created which saves families approximately $110 on backpacks and supplies
-The Backpack program has distributed 36,000 backpacks to elementary students in Vallejo, CA, and Bronx, NY that equals 3.9M worth of supplies and backpacks for these kids and families.
-Over $800,000 invested in athletic and community renovations at 3 baseball fields and 3 youth centers.
-With the foundation, Amber and CC Sabathia service over 6,000 youth across the country to empower and encourager belief in their dreams.
