Knocking it out of the park for a great cause! 🥎

A huge thank you to the 10 incredible teams who stepped up to the plate during our annual Easterseals Massachusetts softball fundraising event! Thanks to your grit, competitive spirit, and generosity, we have already raised over $6,400 to support Easterseals Massachusetts programs and the amazing clients we serve, and donations are still rolling in!

Special shoutouts to our epic matchups in Cambridge, Worcester, and Stoughton:
- The MIT Press vs. Harvard University Press, who faced off for the 25th time! As we celebrate this milestone matchup, we also recognize umpire Buddy for his decades of service.
- Battle of the Banks: Cornerstone Bank vs. Middlesex Savings Bank
- Credit Union Clash: Digital Federal Credit Union vs. All One Credit Union
- R.H. White Companies, Inc. vs. Evergreen Center
- Robert Reiser Inc. vs. Paul & Dixon Insurance, who battled it out for an incredible 30th year!

We are grateful for the support of our community champions, who make this work possible. Thank you for making a difference both on and off the field!
