Tigers Foundation
CBS Radio has teamed with the Detroit Tigers to once again present Gloves For Kids, a community support program that provides baseball equipment to area youth.

Your donation benefits the Detroit Tigers Foundation, an organization that uses the game of baseball as a tool for teaching and empowering kids in our community. Visit the Detroit Tigers Foundation website to learn more »

Make plans to be at one of our Gloves For Kids donation collection events and bring along your gently used or new baseball and softball equipment. When you do, you'll get to meet some of your favorite Detroit Tigers players!


If you can’t make it to a Gloves For Kids collection event but still have equipment to donate, bring it by anytime to your local ABC Warehouse location.

Through Sept. 30, collection boxes will be on-hand that connect your donations with those who need them.

Upcoming
Gloves For Kids events


Meet Zach Miner & Marcus Thames!
On Saturday June 28, Tigers pitchers Zach Miner and Marcus Thames will be signing autographs in exchange for donations of new or gently used baseball and softball equipment to benefit "Gloves For Kids."

The autograph signing will take place at the Chesterfield ABC Warehouse at 51600 Gratiot Avenue from 12:30 -1:30PM. Clean out your closet or garage and help support youth baseball in the City of Detroit! (If you have no equipment to donate, a cash donation of $10 per autograph is required.)

Players and times are subject to change. Presence at store during designated time does not guarantee an autograph. The Tigers reserve the right to refuse to sign any item deemed inappropriate.
