SATURDAY'S EVENT TO BENEFIT MANNY MOTA INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION
LOS ANGELES – The Dodgers Dream Foundation will hold a sports memorabilia silent auction this Saturday, September 20 at Dodger Stadium to benefit the Manny Mota International Foundation. Fans will have the opportunity to bid on over 100 sports collectibles, including a Russell Martin signed game-used bat and signed Dodger catching gear, as well as signed game-used cleats by Dodger outfielder Andre Ethier and pitcher Chad Billingsley.
Some of the other items up for bid include signed baseballs by Hall of Fame broadcaster Vin Scully and Hall of Fame player and manager Yogi Berra; and authentic signed jerseys by Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz, San Diego Padres pitcher Trevor Hoffman, and San Francisco Giants pitcher Tim Lincecum. The silent auction will take place from 5:30-8:45 p.m. on the club level outside of the Vin Scully Pressbox, and will be open to fans with a ticket to Saturday’s Dodgers-Giants game.
The mission of the Manny Mota International Foundation is to provide educational, health and recreational opportunities for disadvantaged youth and their families in the United States and the Dominican Republic. Founded in 1967, the Foundation’s vision is to use the Manny Mota Baseball Clinics program as the platform to teach children to build healthy bodies and minds through positive role models and teach self-discipline through sports, as well as to provide communities with the tools necessary for improvement and self-reliance. Mota is in his 29th season as a coach with the Dodgers and 39th overall in the organization after a playing career in Los Angeles that spanned parts of 13 seasons from 1969-80 and 1982.
Founded in 1998, the Dodgers Dream Foundation (DDF) was created to provide educational, athletic and recreational opportunities for the youth of the Greater Los Angeles community. The Foundation places special emphasis on helping traditionally under-served youth.
