Throws Out Cancer !
The Pope Francis Baseball Team sponsored a "Throw Out Cancer" youth
baseball clinic at Forest Park in Springfield, MA on Saturday, May 6. It was
open to participants from ages 9-14 and turned out quite successful! They were
able to raise nearly $2,000, quite a significant amount for St. Jude's
Children's Research Hospital.

St. Jude's treats and works to defeat childhood cancer and other life
threatening diseases of children. The majority of the funding is from donors.
Amazingly they do this without charging the parents / caretakers for the care
and treatment, which is a MAJOR relief from the burden of cost for all those
involved...the concentration is on the child's treatment and well being.
Really a GREAT hospital.
GOOD JOB POPE FRANCIS BASEBALL !
