USA Baseball Launches Our Pastime’s Future Fund
Initiative will aim to improve programs through donations
Posted On: October 1, 2024 By :USA Baseball has launched Our Pastime’s Future Fund, which features seven donor tiers of support that range from $100 to $10,000 ahead of the sport’s return to the Olympic program.
Donors will have access to benefits provided by USA Baseball that are tailored to each tier, beginning with recognition on USABaseball.com and at the USA Baseball National Training Complex, climbing all the way to having the chance to meet and interact with future national teams.
USA Baseball will be in the LA28 sports program with baseball joining softball and several other sports in Los Angeles but its Olympic future is not secured beyond then. USA Baseball is fueled by sponsors and events hosted at the National Training Complex in Cary, North Carolina, and at the Peoria Sports Complex in Phoenix.
USA Baseball has tasked Drake Sacenti, the director of development, with developing the foundation. Sacenti has been on the job since April and has a background in collegiate fundraising and development, previously spending time at the Universities of Nevada, Oregon State and Houston. Sacenti will consult with several of the staff at USA Baseball including Chief Executive Officer Paul Seiler, Chief Opertaing Officer David Perkins and Chief Financial Officer Ray Darwin.
