Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation News:
ARLINGTON — For the 13th consecutive year, Globe Life and the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation are partnering to provide grants for baseball and softball programs across New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and Oklahoma.
The Texas Rangers’ Globe Life Baseball & Softball Grant Program is designed to grow youth participation in the sports by funding grant proposals for an array of community initiatives focused on improving baseball and softball programming.
Nonprofit organizations and schools throughout the team’s five-state territory are encouraged to complete the grant application proposal at rangers.com/grants describing how their youth baseball or softball program can benefit from funding.
Grants may be used for construction projects, field renovations, league development, equipment and uniform needs, and more. Winners are selected based on need and the ability of the proposed program to improve youth baseball and softball opportunities in their community.
In 2023, Globe Life and the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation awarded $125,000 to 21 nonprofit organizations in Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma after receiving a record number of applications. Since its inception in 2012, the grant program has donated over $975,000 to more than 120 organizations.
As part of its naming rights partnership with the Rangers, Globe Life has made a substantial commitment to support the growth of youth baseball and softball by joining the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation in the grant program.
Bally Sports Southwest helps to promote the Globe Life Baseball & Softball Grant Program throughout the Rangers’ five-state television territory.
