Fan involvement and commitment are a critical factors in the Goldeyes Field of Dreams Foundation's success and longevity.

 

With a grassroots focus as the basis of its charitable philosophy, the Foundation focuses on helping smaller organizations where every dollar makes a direct impact.




The Foundation also awards Baseball Manitoba scholarships annually.

 

These $1,000 scholarships are awarded to Baseball Manitoba members who are continuing with post-secondary education while maintaining their involvement in the baseball community.


These scholarships are awarded based on an individual’s baseball ability, academics and service to their community.

"For more than 20 years, the Winnipeg Goldeyes Field of Dreams Foundation has enabled us to bring dreams to life for Manitoba kids battling life-threatening illnesses. The support we’ve received has been directly responsible for creating countless unforgettable memories for children in our community during some of their most difficult days.


The funding we have received has not only helped to make children’s dreams come true, but has also provided families with financial support, access to ongoing programming, and a community of support during their child’s medical journey.

 

We are truly grateful to have the Field of Dreams Foundation as part of our “Dream Team” and we appreciate all that they do to support children’s charities in Manitoba."
