OMAHA, Neb. — Last season the Omaha Storm Chasers and the Home Run Foundation of Greater Omaha, the charitable arm of the organization, participated in Omaha Gives! for the first time. On May 20, the Storm Front Team Store will be the home for the charitable challenge from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

 

Omaha Gives! is a 24-hour, online giving event organized by the Omaha Community Foundation to grow philanthropy in Douglas, Sarpy, and Pottawattamie counties, with the goal to inspire the community to come together for 24 hours to contribute as many charitable dollars as possible to support the work of local non-profit organizations participating.  Those interested in donating to the Home Run Foundation can do so online at www.omahagives24.org from midnight to midnight on May 20 with a minimum donation of $10.

 

As a part of the Omaha non-profit community, the Home Run Foundation of Greater Omaha seeks to raise funds for their charitable contributions that benefit sports and recreational activities with a focus on youth.  In addition to donating online, the event at the Storm Front Team Store will reward fans for donating to the Home Run Foundation of Greater Omaha.  Full details for the event:

 

• 50 Mystery Autographed Baseballs to be given out to those who donate $20 or more.  Autographs include Eric Hosmer, Mike Moustakas and more.

• 30% off at the Storm Front Team Store (in store only on full-priced items, some exclusions apply)

 

All attendees at the Storm Front Team Store will have the chance to speak with representatives of the Home Run Foundation of Greater Omaha and learn about the various programs involved in the organization before donating.
