⚾ Help Us Build a Youth Sports Facility for Our Kids
Our Mission
We are Project 8 Youth Sports League, a community-based nonprofit that has been serving kids and families for years. With six baseball teams for children ages 5–13, along with sports clinics, movie nights, holiday toy giveaways, and partnerships with the NYPD Community Affairs Unit, our goal has always been the same: to keep kids active, safe, and inspired through sports and community engagement.
The Need
Right now, our teams face a major challenge—we don’t have an indoor facility to train and practice. That means when the weather is bad, our kids lose valuable time to develop their skills, build teamwork, and stay active.
Another challenge we face is the cost of equipment. Too many kids want to play baseball but can’t afford the gloves, bats, cleats, and uniforms needed to join a team. We believe no child should be left out of the game because of financial barriers.
A dedicated facility combined with access to proper equipment would give our kids a chance year-round to:
• Train, practice, and grow their athletic skills
• Stay off the streets and engaged in positive activities
• Build confidence, discipline, and teamwork
• Create lifelong memories and friendships
• Play baseball with the right gear—regardless of family income
Our Goal
We are raising funds to provide kids with the equipment they need and to open an indoor training and practice facility where children from our league and community can come together, regardless of background or income. This facility will include batting cages, open practice areas, and flexible space for multiple sports and activities.
Why Your Support Matters
Every dollar raised goes directly to making this dream a reality. By donating, you’re not just helping us build walls and equipment—you’re putting bats and gloves in kids’ hands and giving them the chance to play the game they love. You’re investing in the future of our children, giving them opportunities to thrive, stay safe, and grow in a positive environment.
How You Can Help
• Donate what you can—no amount is too small
• Help us buy bats, gloves, helmets, and other gear for kids who need it
• Share this campaign with friends, family, and coworkers
• Spread the word on social media to keep our mission alive
Together, we can make sure our kids have both the facility and the equipment they deserve. Thank you for believing in our youth and helping us continue to build a stronger community through sports.
Donate today and help us open the doors to opportunity—for every child who wants to play.
