Join The Hobby Foundation in Making a Difference
Our Mission
The Hobby Foundation strives to inspire creativity and foster community through hobbies. Our mission is to provide resources and support to youth sports communities and public schools, helping them to discover new interests and build lasting connections.
Ways to Give
There are many ways to give, but direct donations make the largest impact on the youth sports community and public school educators and classrooms. We also accept donations of sports cards and memorabilia for the sole purpose of selling to raise funds that will directly impact these communities.
Direct donations can be accepted through our PayPal - eric@thehobbyfoundation.com
Grants
The Hobby Foundation will be able to supply grants to youth sports organizations and public school educators to improve and enhance their programs.

Supporting material should not exceed five additional pages. The letter and supporting material should provide general programmatic and financial information on the applicant organization and should include a concise description of the project for which funds are being sought. All inquiries should be addressed to Eric Hecker, CEO, at:
