The Kane County Cougars independent minor-league baseball team, based in Geneva, will donate all of the proceeds from the 2022 season’s 50/50 raffle to the Ukrainian World Congress.
Along with donating the proceeds, the Kane County Cougars Foundation will provide a match for the funds raised.
“The Kane County Cougars Foundation always supports local charities first,” said Cougars owner and president Dr. Bob Froehlich. “However, the events in the world today have caused us to broaden our horizons globally to help humankind. We stand with Ukraine.”
The Ukrainian World Congress coordinates emergency response and provides medical supplies and protective equipment to Ukraine.
The Kane County Cougars will open the 2022 season Friday, May 13, at the Northwestern Medicine Field in Geneva against the Cleburne Railroaders.
The Cougars are online at kccougars.com or follow on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram for updates and more information regarding tickets and promotions for the upcoming season.
