Joining our roster means that you are dedicated to introducing kids to baseball or softball programming in a safe and inclusive way. You are currently connected to children and youth facing significant barriers and you want to bring them together to work on drills and skills, to help them gain confidence, and feel part of a team.
Our programs are different from a traditional baseball/softball league because:
Do you work for a Canadian Local Government that runs recreational programming? Jays Care has launched a Local Government Program!
Do you work for a grassroots non-profit organization, charity, First Nation, Metis, or Inuit Community?

Feedback from Partners:
"Our facility is located in a lower income community and opportunities for recreational sports and physical activity often come with barriers. This program enabled us to give children and youth, particularly newcomers, with an opportunity to learn a new sport and be active. This opportunity was incredible to provide our children and youth the opportunity to experience baseball!" -Community Partner, ON?
"The Jays Care Challenger Baseball program is one of the things that our campers look forward to the most every year, as it's one of the rare opportunities our Deaf campers get to learn a sport or activity with Deaf trainers. Indeed, some of our participants had never been able to join other sports leagues due to communication barriers. We are grateful to Jays Care for all your support through the years." -Community Partner, ON
"Our organization aims to create a brighter future for our Indigenous youth, but many have barriers to access due to costs or other factors. The partnership with Jays Care helped us reach and satisfy our mandate. Our Indigenous youth suffer from intergenerational trauma, and this partnership with Jays Care helps us provide a positive experience and provide them with movement that adheres to our Indigenous ways of knowing." -Community Partner, SK
