Home Runs for Heritage Campaign Tops $3,000

by Guy

The Baldwin-Wallace College baseball alumni are proud to announce that this year’s Home Runs for Heritage campaign raised more than $3,000 to help pay for the design and construction of a new press box at Heritage Field.

Dozens of generous B-W baseball alumni, parents and fans pledged a total of $216 for each of the 11 home runs the Yellow Jackets hit this season, giving us $2,376 in promised donations. We also received $760 in unpledged, direct donations, bringing our total proceeds to $3,136.

All of the pledges and donations that we collect from our supporters are immediately deposited in the college’s Heritage Field fund, but we plan to present a ceremonial check to Coach Fisher at this year’s alumni baseball game on Homecoming morning, October 13.

Thank you to everyone who made our inaugural Home Runs for Heritage campaign a success. If you missed your chance to join this season’s campaign, you can make an “off-season” donation to the Heritage Field fund at any time of year by sending a designated gift to B-W’s Development Office.

And you can look forward to another Home Runs for Heritage campaign next year!
