About Amazin' Mets Foundation
Amazin' Mets Foundation Inc gives most heavily to youth baseball and softball infrastructure, with repeated large grants to Pitch in for Baseball (pifbs) in Harleysville, PA for youth athletic support. The pattern is clear in both program and practice: the foundation backs leagues, player development, equipment distribution, and field renovation projects that make play spaces safer and more accessible for children and adolescents. In the recent grants list, that same youth-sports emphasis appears alongside support for other baseball-related and community-serving organizations in New York City and nearby neighborhoods. The foundation also uses its grantmaking to support educational and community needs tied to New York youth and families. Recent awards include New York Cares Inc for education support, Commonpoint Queens (samuel Field Ym-ywha Inc) for education support, and The Queens Library Foundation Inc for education support. Its portfolio combines direct program support with practical help for facilities, clinics, and organized youth activities rather than broad unrestricted philanthropy. Across the current file, grants are local in scope and overwhelmingly directed to recipients in New York, especially Queens and surrounding boroughs.

Unsolicited applications are not part of the listed active programs, and several program pillars are described as closed or non-open to unsolicited requests.
