Baseball team of Donetsk
Back in July 2019 we started a fundraiser for the Donetsk Little League. Donbass Human Aid pitched in $1,000 plus $300 delivery and our friend Ernest Henry did a FB fundraiser that raised $700 more. Well, almost 8 months and a LOT of hard work later, the first and main shipment has arrived – 2 full catcher’s outfits, 20 gloves, 2 dozen baseballs, 2 dozen practice baseballs, 2 dozen practice softballs, half a dozen bats.
We ordered all the stuff from the States (FLA) and get everything shipped to NYC, where a Russian friend helped with shipping to Moscow. From Moscow, Luis brought everything to Rostov and then across the border to Donetsk. We brought the gear to the kid’s practice at a local sports club. Needless to say, they were delighted! Thanks to everyone who participated in this project.
