Orioles in the Community

We met and exceeded our match challenge goal, raising more than $1 Million to aid families and individuals affected by Hurricane Milton across Sarasota and Manatee counties.

Although the initial goal was met, The Community Foundation is continuing to accept donations in support of those affected by the hurricane.

In response to the devastating impact of the recent Hurricanes, the Baltimore Orioles have teamed up with MedStar Health, the Orioles trusted medical provider, and the American Red Cross for a Pitch-In Blood Drive. This blood drive will take place at the Warehouse at Camden Yards on Tuesday, November 12th from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m.

We invite all of Birdland and the Baltimore community to sign up to “Pitch In” and donate blood with us.

All who come in to donate will receive a $10 e-gift card to a merchant of your choice from the American Red Cross. Plus, you’ll also be automatically entered for a chance to win a $7,000 gift card! Terms apply; more at RCblood.org/thanks.

The Orioles and Baltimore City are on the cusp of The Next Chapter. To contribute to the momentum of this resurgence, the Orioles have engaged in an Adopt-A-School initiative, partnering with Harlem Park Elementary Middle School located in West Baltimore, and Baltimore City Public Schools.

Founded in 2021, the Heroes Corner program serves as a way for the Orioles to say thank you and show their appreciation to frontline workers and volunteers in our community.

The Orioles will host a 50/50 Raffle at each regular season home game to benefit a charity in the Baltimore community and the Ted Williams Foundation, giving fans the opportunity to make a direct impact across Birdland, while trying to hit the jackpot at Camden Yards. Raffle tickets may be purchased from uniformed raffle-ticket sellers and via QR codes throughout the ballpark until the end of the 7th inning. The winning number will be announced in the bottom of the 8th inning.

Year-round, the Orioles focus their philanthropic efforts on two distinct pillars: Strengthening Our Community and Empowering Our Youth. The Orioles strengthen the Baltimore community by volunteering, donating thousands of dollars, and inviting community members to the ballpark to be recognized for their contributions to our city. The Orioles empower Baltimore youth by making donations to local youth-focused organizations, inviting local youth to the ballpark for educational opportunities, and spreading the game of baseball across the city.
