More about Boston Red Sox
The Boston Red Sox and the Red Sox Foundation harness the power of Red Sox Nation to support select programs serving at risk children and families across New England. The team's charity efforts are primarily focused on the Foundation's cornerstone programs, including the Red Sox Scholars Program, which provides mentoring, enrichment programs and a college scholarship to academically talented but economically disadvantaged Boston public school students and the Red Sox Foundation's RBI and Rookie League youth baseball and softball programs serving more than 1,000 inner city teens each summer.
The team also supports the Red Sox Foundation and Massachusetts General Hospital Home Base Program for veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with combat stress and traumatic brain injury; and The Jimmy Fund, supporting breakthrough cancer research at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute.
