Field of Futures Impact Campaign

Baseball 4 Causes (B4C) is proud to join forces with The Diamond Collective to launch the B4C × Baltimore Urban Baseball Association (BUBA) Field of Futures Impact Campaign — a collaborative effort to support BUBA, a remarkable urban baseball training facility that is opening doors and changing lives.

This campaign aligns with BUBA’s upcoming Field of Futures event, featuring Orioles legend Adam Jones, and builds on our joint commitment to strengthening youth development, mentorship, and community opportunity through baseball.

Together, we’re helping The Diamond Collective expand its work to include the tremendous brotherhood and sisterhood within our shared baseball networks — Baseball 4 Causes, Harford Men's Baseball League (HMBL), and DC Men's Senior Baseball League (DCMSBL) — all committed to making a positive impact in the world through the great game of baseball.

The inaugural "Field of Futures" fundraiser brings together two remarkable organizations dedicated to creating opportunities for underrepresented youth through America's favorite pastimes.

Hosted by The Diamond Collective, this exclusive event supports the vital work of the Baltimore Urban Baseball Association (BUBA) and Tony Gwynn Legacy East (TGLE), two organizations that share a common vision: using baseball and softball as vehicles for personal development, education, and community impact.

The "Field of Futures" represents more than just a fundraising event; it's an investment in the next generation of leaders, athletes, and community champions. Every dollar raised will directly support youth baseball and softball programming, facility scholarships, and life-changing experiences that inspire young people to dream bigger and reach higher, whether they're stepping into the batter's box or onto the pitcher's plate.

This event promises to be an unforgettable evening where baseball legends, community leaders, and supporters come together to build brighter futures—one young athlete at a time.

Orioles Hall of Famer, Adam Jones, will be in attendance at the upcoming Field of Futures event. 

As a powerful testament to the value of this facility and the personal relationships behind The Diamond Collective and this partnership, Adam Jones is volunteering his time — inspired by his own mentor, Tony Gwynn.

B4C has set a $2,000 fundraising goal, with proceeds divided as follows:

• $1,500 will go directly to BUBA to support ongoing facility operations, access for urban youth, and the dedicated staff who make this incredible space possible.
• $500 will fund student intern projects that directly benefit BUBA — including event promotion, post-event recaps, and the development of new Life After Baseball Lab curriculum designed to teach real-world life and career skills.

Our intent is simple and transparent: 100% of the proceeds from this campaign will have a direct and measurable impact on BUBA and its programs.

Your contribution fuels youth opportunity, education, and transformation. Together, through the B4C × BUBA Field of Futures Impact Campaign, we can empower young athletes, inspire lifelong learning, and help BUBA continue building a true field of futures.

Join us in helping BUBA hit it out of the park as they host this exciting milestone event! Sponsorships and donations of all sizes are welcome and will be gratefully recognized.

Every dollar helps support both BUBA directly, and BUBA initiatives in our mentoring program through our collaboration with them and The Diamond Collective — three like-minded organizations committed to making a positive impact on youth both on and off the field through the great game of baseball.

In addition to financially supporting the event as a sponsor, and assisting with the event through communications, B4C is looking to help expand attendance at the Field of Futures event as well. We have set a goal of having at least 10 people from our network purchase tickets.
