Youth Sports & Baseball Fundraising


Coaches are always put in charge of baseball fundraising, softball fundraising or any organization's fundraising efforts. As a coach, it isn't the best part of the job, but it has become more and more important as youth organizations are budgeting less and less to it's teams.

Baseball fundraising, and fundraising in general, has become big-business over the past decade and you want to be careful what type of fundraiser you choose. Most fundraisers require you to sell something like a product or service. Some fundraisers ask people to sponsor others in a race or marathon. With all of these options, you will find yourself asking which ones are best...

As a youth baseball coach and parent, I am grateful for the opportunity to work with a very good organization that helps kids. Read below about my favorite fundraiser that really takes on a life of it's own once you start working it.


A Glove Of Their Own - Fundraiser For Your Team

#1 Children's Baseball Book

I know I have said this before, but I have been blessed with an opportunity, via M.Y.B., to share some really quality information to youth baseball coaches, parents and players. Because of this, I feel that it is important that I only recommend things that I trust and know to people. Fundraising by selling the book, A Glove Of Their Own, is something I am very familiar with and I believe in. That is why this page is here...

I am one of the lucky ones to become part of "A Glove of Their Own" and become good friends with Bob Salomon, the man behind the scenes of this book. Bob is a great guy that truly has his heart in the right place! If you choose to use "A Glove" to raise money for your team/organization, you will be dealing with a great person that will look out for YOUR organization!

More Information On "A Glove of Their Own."

For more information on this award-winning book, please click here to visit my page dedicated to it. You will find much more information there, including what professional athletes endorse it and how to purchase it!

How This Fundraiser Works?

Basically, your organization will order a certain quantity of "A Glove of Their Own" books at a certain price. Then your organization is free to sell them and will make somewhere between $3 and $5 per book sold. This can be an on-going fundraiser or one that you push at certain times of the year, but EVERY time you sell one of these books, you will earn money!

A Glove of Their Own is a tear-jerker that kids love. I have also spoken with many adults, especially grandparents, that absolutely adore this book!

SPECIAL NOTE - This book goes wayyy beyond baseball fundraising! If you choose to get involved, you will be helping other kids around the country AND will be part of a "movement" that has become known as "A Glove of Their Own." Be a part of the same team that includes guys like Yogi Berra, Michael Cuddyer, Tommy John, and many more!

Either Bob or I will contact you quickly!
GRATEFUL!
