Jordan’s Furniture recently announced that it has delivered a truck full of baseball and softball equipment to Fenway Park for the Red Sox Foundation’s inner city youth baseball program. Over 25 boxes the size of living room recliners were filled with donated equipment.

Through their Double Play Youth Donation Program, Jordan’s Furniture collected like-new, clean baseball and softball equipment at all store locations to donate to the Red Sox Foundation’s RBI youth baseball league teams.

“In this day and age of pay-to-play, there are thousands of kids that just cannot afford to play sports,” said Eliot Tatelman of Jordan’s Furniture. “We think that every youth should be able to enjoy America’s favorite pastime, so we created the Double Play Youth Donation Program. And with the help of the Red Sox Foundation, we are able to reach a lot of inner-city kids in our area.”

“We are grateful to partner with community champion Jordan’s Furniture on this terrific equipment drive,” said Red Sox Foundation Executive Director Gena Borson. “Through the collection of gently-used equipment, Jordan’s is making summer games possible for many disadvantaged kids.”

This is the seventh year that Jordan’s has run the charitable collection program. For more information, visit www.jordans.com.
