A Night at the Ballpark: Building Community One Game at a Time

On a warm spring evening, the Anchor of Hope community gathered at Canal Park for a night filled with laughter, connection, and America’s favorite pastime — baseball. For many of our families, this was their first time experiencing a live baseball game, and it quickly became an unforgettable memory.

From cheering in the stands to sharing meals, to children’s wide-eyed excitement and the simple joy of being together — this event was more than just a game. It was about belonging.

Seeing generations — from toddlers to grandparents — united by smiles and celebration reminded us of the power of shared experiences. These moments help families heal, connect, and thrive in a new country.

We are deeply thankful to everyone who made this possible.  When you give to Anchor of Hope, you do more than sponsor an event—you help a newcomer feel seen, a child feel safe, and a family feel like they belong. These moments of joy and connection are the first steps toward healing and a brighter future.

Let’s create more nights where laughter drowns out loneliness and hope takes root. Stand with us—your support changes lives, one precious memory at a time.

Thank you for being part of this journey.
