It’s more than baseball — it’s real help for our community. Folks still need clothes after all the storms. Whether it’s gear for kids who’ve grown, or layers for the colder months ahead — your donations go straight where they’re needed.

🧥 Why it matters:

.

Goodwill of Northwest North Carolina has served our region since 1926, recycling clothing and household items to fund training, job placement, and livelihood support for people recovering from trauma or trauma-related loss. In the wake of Helene, they are seeing serious demand for coats, sweatshirts, and children’s wear in WNC communities

⚾ A Bit of Baseball History

.

The Asheville Tourists, playing at historic McCormick Field since 1924, are one of the nation’s longest‑running minor league franchises. Originally born out of teams like the Moonshiners and Mountaineers of the early 1900s, the name “Tourists” stuck around 1915 in honor of Asheville’s booming tourism industry. McCormick Field is one of the oldest ballparks in Minor League Baseball, seating about 4,000 fans amid Asheville’s hills and history.
