Our Team

Teammates for Kids began in 1999 with the love and support of 67 Major League Baseball players who made a pledge to help kids. Since then, over 4,300 professional athletes from baseball, football, basketball, hockey, soccer, rodeo and racing have joined our team. Our roster includes Hall of Fame members, as well as World Series, Super Bowl, Stanley Cup, MLS Cup, and NBA Finals champions. Now, it’s YOUR turn!

Join The Team

100% Goes To Kids

Quite simply, Teammates for Kids exists to do everything we can to help kids. It’s that simple and that important! We accomplish our goals by partnering professional athletes, corporations, celebrities and now, for the first time, individuals from the private sector. Because the foundation’s overhead expenses are privately funded, 100% of all money donated goes to the kids. That’s not the goal . . . it’s the rule!

Child Life Zones

What is a Child Life Zone? A place where a kid can be a kid. A Child Life Zone is a state-of-the-art, therapeutic play area inside a hospital where pediatric patients and their families can play, learn, laugh, and relax. Child life specialists teach patients about their illness. what to expect during treatment, and they provide support to patients and their families before, during, and after procedures.

Teammates Kids


 
Teammates kids come from all over the world and from many different backgrounds. They come in all sizes and ages, and they face a variety of challenges in life. However, they have a few things in common—courage, strength, faith, and an indomitable spirit in the face of tremendous challenges. We’ve had the honor of meeting these kids through our work with Child Life Zones or through other children’s charities that Teammates supports financially. Spending time with them inspires us to continue our work on their behalf.

Teammates News


 
Teammates for Kids Foundation has received a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, America's largest and most-utilized independent evaluator of charities.


Since its inception in 1999, The Teammates for Kids Foundation has worked with over 4,300 professional athletes to generate funds for children’s charities, focusing on children’s health, education, and inner-city outreach, through building Child Life Zones, supporting youth athletic programs, and funding life-saving surgeries. To date, Teammates has distributed over $100 million in cash, gifts-in-kind, and scholarships, bringing aid to children across North America and more than 60 countries worldwide. With all that work going on, we have news to share! This is where you’ll find information on Child Life Zone openings, programs that receive Teammates funding, features on children who’ve been helped by Teammates, professional athletes’ generosity and interaction with the kids, and much more.
