Our mission is to enrich local and regional communities by providing resources for the healthy development of children and families through an association with baseball, softball, and the Minnesota Twins.
The Minnesota Twins Community Fund’s recent giving is defined by baseball and softball infrastructure, with matching support for fields, equipment, and youth programming across the Upper Midwest and Southwest Florida. A standout pattern is repeated funding for community organizations that run RBI/Playball work, plus direct support for parks departments and youth sports groups that maintain local playing spaces. In 2025, the largest grant listed went to Correa Family Foundation for RBI/Playball grants, continuing a multi-year relationship that also appears in 2023 and 2024. The foundation also backed Pitch In For Baseball and Softball in multiple years, including grants tied to equipment and general support, showing an emphasis on lowering barriers to participation. Its portfolio includes both cash grants and in-kind ticket giving through TwinsCare Tickets for Kids, which brings underserved youth and families to Minnesota Twins games at Target Field. Across the recent grants list, the funding pattern ties the foundation closely to youth sports access, field quality, and community recreation programs rather than individual beneficiaries.
The Minnesota Twins Community Fund supports youth baseball and softball from several angles. For program support, it gave $180,000 to Correa Family Foundation in 2025 for RBI/Playball grants, along with earlier support in 2023 and 2024. Equipment access is another clear theme: in 2025, Pitch In For Baseball received $125,533 for RBI/Playball grants, building on a 2023 general-support grant of $96,443. Facility improvement also appears prominently. The foundation gave $75,000 to City of Greenfield for facility support and $44,700 to Minneapolis Youth Baseball Association for facility support, both aimed at improving the places where youth teams play. It also backs youth development beyond the field, including general support for Playworks and the Boys and Girls Club of the Twin Cities.
Typical grant sizes cluster at $10,000 to $15,000, with a median grant of $15,000 and a 75th percentile also at $15,000; the lower quartile is $10,000. The recent-grants list shows repeat recipients across multiple years, including Correa Family Foundation, Pitch In For Baseball and Softball, Playworks, Minnesota Military Families Foundation, and St Paul Division of Parks and Recreation. That pattern points to ongoing relationships rather than one-off gifts. The foundation operates as a community fund tied to the Minnesota Twins, and its grantmaking includes general support, facility/capital support, and program-specific RBI/Playball grants. It also makes in-kind ticket grants through TwinsCare Tickets for Kids.
