Last week was a busy one that included a 350-person fundraising event, and a 200-person event at the ballpark for #schwarbersneighborhoodheroes. This is an applause post for teams: teams that know their roles and star in them. When individual team members (and, in our case, volunteers) play to their strengths and execute per plan, it’s beautiful, and feels seemingly low-effort. The result? More than 550 guests smiling, happy, and closer to the cause. Cheers to teamwork! And applause for Team Firefly and our volunteers in particular! 👏🏻 #sportsphilanthropy #teamwork

This was a fun one! Thanks for the shout out Kevin Saghy!
Kyle Schwarber's mammoth home runs have gained a reputation for being "Schwarbombs." Schwarber's Neighborhood Heroes creatively launched the Schwarbomb Squad to leverage these homers for good, as each fan who donates just $10 may win anything from shirts to signed memorabilia. Kyle seems motivated to reward supporters, as he launched two Schwarbombs tonight! ⚾⚾ Kudos to Jeff Magee and Connie Falcone for the creativity that connects fandom with fundraising!

We work at the intersection of sports and philanthropy. We help athletes or teams use their influence or resources to drive positive social impact. And we also help organizations that use sports to drive social change. Are you a nonprofit using sports-based programs to deliver on your mission? We'd love to hear how you implement sports to create powerful results.

Our client, Kyle Schwarber, spent Tuesday in the community saying thanks at the 3rd district police station in South Philly then hosted first responder families from Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation at the game that night. The following night he does this. Coincidence? We think not. #sportsphilanthropy #kyleschwarber #schwarbersneighborhoodheroes #community #schwarbombs

By now, the world knows the excitement of women’s basketball (which, by the way, was always there). What excites us most is the female stars of this year’s March Madness are building off-court legacies as well. Caitlin Clark (caitlinclarkfoundation.org) and Angel Reese (angelcreesefoundation.org) have their own foundations, and Paige Bueckers insists her NIL deals have a charity or community component are some examples. Bravo to these fierce females for using their platform for good. #sportsphilanthropy Caitlin Clark Foundation #angelreese #paigebueckers #marchmadness

Want to brainstorm about sports philanthropy and using sports to do good? Let’s channel passion for purpose!

Today is Opening Day for my friends at the Chicago Cubs. As I was entering the stadium, a fan shared he took a day off of work, and plans to sit in lousy Chicago spring weather because he couldn’t miss seeing his beloved team’s home opener. Let’s bottle that collective passion we all share for sports and channel it for good!

What do we find is the primary reason more professional athletes hesitate to pursue charitable work? Time. "I have so little time," or "I can't make an impact because I don't have enough time." We love to hear that because it's an easy fix! As a trusted team who understands how to drive positive results in the nonprofit space, we do the work behind the scenes. You simply show up and have meaningful interactions when time permits, positively impacting the community you care about, and building your legacy outside the game. We especially love the mood-boost our clients have when they spend time with people whose lives improve because they showed up. Even with a few hours a season, we help athletes move the needle on their mission. #sportsphilanthropy #impact #athletes #legacy

It’s great to see coverage of the charitable angle of big sports events. Way to go National Basketball Association (NBA) and congrats to the beneficiaries, Special Olympics Indiana and Boys & Girls Clubs of Indianapolis! https://lnkd.in/g9fh-sB5

This is why we love sports. It is connection. It is passion. It can be heartbreak. Awesome story from The Athletic about the ties that bind with Chicago Cubs new GM, Craig Counsell. Grab a tissue. https://lnkd.in/gAAXzTXA How Craig Counsell, ‘The chicken runs at midnight’ and a Chicago sports-radio host connect
