Hey young Tribe fans, want a chance to play kickball in the outfield of Progressive Field and help children with cancer?
Throughout the summer, you can register to hold kickball games in your communities to raise money from July until September. Teams of kids will then be chosen to play in "Kick It" games at Progressive Field post-game during five Kids Fun Days in August and September beginning with Sunday, August 2. All proceeds to benefit Pediatric, Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Research.
Select Indians players are committed to supporting "Kick It" as team captains select Sunday's for the winning teams that earn thru fundraising the chance of playing kickball at Progressive Field.
To begin the process of participating in "Kick It", Cleveland Indians Charities and Flashes of Hope have created a "Kick It" Kit for $29.95, which is basically an "event in a box" to make it easy to set up a game.
CIC and Flashes of Hope are committed to pediatric and adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer research through these unique grassroots fundraising games. The contest is part of a partnership between Cleveland Indians Charities and Flashes of Hope to raise money for cancer research and create widespread community awareness about pediatric and AYA cancer.
Established in 1989, Cleveland Indians Charities (CIC) is the self-sustaining charitable arm of the Cleveland Indians that concentrates on creative partnerships with select organizations that focus on youth education and recreation. Since its inception, CIC has donated more than $6.0 million to youth-oriented agencies and organizations throughout Northeast Ohio.
