Hello Parents and Families of EHLL,
I wanted to take a moment to reach out to you all and let you know about an amazing program that has been introduced to me, through T-Mobile. I was contacted by Little League International yesterday, to let me know that they have implemented a program that allows families in need the chance to get their registration fees for Little League Baseball and Softball paid for.
The T-Mobile Little League Call Up Grant Program enables parents/guardians of children who receive one of the following benefits, to get their registration fee paid for on their behalf:
-
WIC
-
SNAP
-
Currently in Foster Childcare
-
Enrollment in Medicaid or State Health Programs (when applying, this is not listed as an option for image upload. I confirmed with them that you can upload your child’s insurance card for proof)
If you find that your family would qualify for this program, please go to https://kidsinthegame.org/programs/tmobile_little_league_call_up_grant/ to complete the application process. This website also has a very in-depth Facts & Questions section at the bottom to help!
This program is not run by the EHLL so, if you have additional questions, please reach out to [email protected]
This works in two ways:
You must apply individually for EACH of your players. Families are allowed to apply for more than one child, but must do so one at a time.
I am so excited to see this program offered to the children of the East Hartford Little League, and their families.
While you will need to contact T-Mobile directly for this grant, if you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We look forward to seeing you all out on the fields!
