Starting 1 May 2026, donors who make a new outright gift of $9,000 or more to The Rotary Foundation will be eligible to purchase a ticket to join Trustee Stephanie Urchick on 16 September 2026 to cheer on the Texas Rangers in a suite at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, as they take on the Boston Red Sox. $9,000 for 9 innings of Major League Baseball – the “9 for 9” Baseball Game – will result in at least $360,000 in new gifts to The Rotary Foundation! Gifts can be in support of any Rotary Foundation program, grant, or Area of Focus.
Only 40 tickets are available for the “9 for 9” baseball game. Tickets cost $275 each, which donors will purchase separately from their $9,000 gift to The Rotary Foundation. Ticket purchases are not eligible for a tax receipt. Tickets include a group tour of Globe Life Field before watching the game from a catered party suite. Each donor is limited to purchasing up to 4 tickets, provided that the donor has contributed at least $9,000 per ticket to The Rotary Foundation since 1 May 2026 but before 1 September 2026. Attendees are responsible for all other expenses, such as accommodation, transportation, and parking.
Tickets will run out fast, so interested donors are encouraged to register soon. Contact Harvey Newcomb, senior principal gifts officer, at harvey.newcomb@rotary.org or +1-312-504-6151.
