Help Support a Family Navigating Loss & a Fresh Start

Hi everyone,

We are the AA-Yankees reaching out today on behalf of our teammate and baseball family members, Mando, Ashley, and Dominic, as they have just experienced both the joy of a new beginning and the heartbreak of a sudden loss. They recently moved into a new home, ready to start a new chapter together — but tragically, just a day after settling in, Mando's beloved father passed away unexpectedly.

As they grieve and try to find their footing, Mando has had to take time off work to support their loved ones in Pennsylvania, while Ashley stayed in California, to get their new home ready and take care of Dom. With only one income and the many expenses that come with both a new home and an unexpected funeral, they are facing financial challenges that feel overwhelming during an already difficult time.

We’re asking for your help to ease this burden. Your support — no matter the amount — will go toward essentials like groceries, bills, and rent, so they can focus on healing and being together without the added stress of financial strain.

Thank you so much for reading, sharing, and supporting this family in their time of need. Your kindness means the world.

With immense gratitude,

The AA- Yankees
