Additional Idaho Foodbank Causes
MiLB Community First
Sponsored by:Minor League Baseball
The MiLB CommUNITY First campaign, in partnership with Feeding America, will raise funds for local food banks and honor local heroes on the pandemic’s front lines. For every $10 donated through this campaign, one ticket to a future MiLB game will be donated to a hero of the pandemic.
Donations will be distributed by Feeding America to the local food bank within the Feeding America network nearest to the selected MiLB team. If a team is not selected, funds will go to the Feeding America COVID-19 Response Fund, providing food assistance and supplies to communities most affected by the pandemic.
Ticket donations will be at the discretion of the selected MiLB team for the 2020 or 2021 season. Teams are encouraged to select organizations or individuals who are supporting their communities or risking their own safety on the front lines of the pandemic. Recipients can include, but are not limited to, local nonprofit organizations supporting the community, health care workers, nursing home staff, first responders, and grocery and food retail workers. If a team is not selected, tickets will be evenly distributed among the participating teams.
