That\u2019s the highest donation total in Minor League Baseball Charities history. <\/p>\n<p>Minor League Baseball and its 160 teams also nearly doubled their volunteer efforts from 2018, giving more than 26,000 hours of service in communities. <\/p>\n<p>The TinCaps, who were awarded <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/about\/charity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minor League Baseball\u2019s John H. Moss Community Service Award in 2015<\/a> for the organization\u2019s ongoing commitment to charitable service, were among the largest benefactors. The team contributed $869,966 to the Fort Wayne area community in 2019. Last year the TinCaps were also nominated by the Midwest League for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/fort-wayne\/news\/tincaps-nominated-for-minor-league-baseball-s-patriot-award-310918258\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Minor League Baseball\u2019s Charles K. Murphy Patriot Award<\/a> for the team\u2019s outstanding support of the United States Armed Forces and veterans.  <\/p>\n<p>TinCaps President Mike Nutter is one of eight people who serve on the Minor League Baseball Charities Committee.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis shows that our work in Fort Wayne is part of a much larger effort to give back to communities across the country,\u201d Nutter said. <\/p>\n<p>The TinCaps serve their community in a myriad of ways, such as community programs and promotions, in-ballpark fundraising, monetary donations, gifts in-kind, and individual involvement. <\/p>\n<p>One new initiative the TinCaps took in 2019 was hosting a clinic for members of the local Little League Challenger Division, which is an adaptive baseball program for individuals with physical and intellectual challenges. Meanwhile, the team continued their tradition of service in ways like hosting an American Red Cross Blood Drive at Parkview Field, bell-ringing for the Salvation Army, hosting kids from Big Brothers Big Sisters at games, and auctioning off game-worn jerseys with proceeds donated to non-profit organizations\u2014not to mention, the TinCaps Reading Program reached more than 112,000 children at 264 schools and 87 libraries in the region. <\/p>\n<p>Click here to see Minor League Baseball\u2019s 2019 Community Report and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milb.com\/fort-wayne\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> to learn more about how the TinCaps are committed to the local community.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/wells\/81643.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Judi Wire, WCBA President, displays one of the &quot;Tin Caps&quot;.
