The 2013 East Altadena Little League AAA Red Sox Team and families wanted to try something new this season. They decided to foster the spirit of giving, in a team environment, alongside the spirit of competition that East Altadena Little League prides itself on.
The results were tremendous. The team raised $670 through their hard work, great play, and dedication. The families passed around a “Run Dollar” can and money was donated per run scored. Early in the season, $60 dollars was sent to help the cause during Boston’s Marathon crisis.
As the season came to a close the AAA Red Sox were knocked out of the playoffs by a single run. This tenacious team rallied one last time, only this time it was off the field during a recent June 8 meeting at The Pasadena Humane Society, as they proudly handed over a check made out to The Pasadena Humane Society in the amount of $305. The EALL AAA Red Sox left that day feeling like winners by helping the displaced animals that need the care provided by our great Humane Society.
The players still have one more check to deliverL another $305 to help feed the homeless through the organization PATH-(People Assisting The Homeless). Looks like the EALL AAA Red Sox will be taking home another win this season!
