MASONS4Mitts Sets New Fundraising Records
New single-season records set in partnership with MLB partner clubs;
all-time donations in California $2.3 million.
Building on sixteen years of partnership, the Masons of California, in affiliation with the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of California and four Major League Baseball partner foundations, are proud to announce that they have raised a record setting $305,234 in 2024 for youth development programs through their signature Masons4Mitts baseball mitt drive. Since launching the program in 2009, Masons of California donations have raised over $2,300,000, which translates to over 115,000 mitts to youth players across California.
Each year, Masons4Mitts teams up with the San Francisco Giants, Los Angeles Angels, Los Angeles Dodgers, and San Diego Padres to purchase quality leather baseball mitts that are given, free of charge, to young ballplayers in junior baseball and softball leagues across California. Through these programs, Masons4Mitts and its partners provide children with a safe place to play while they develop key collaboration skills, learn about health and nutrition, build productive study habits and more.
In addition to setting a new statewide fundraising record, California Masons set three new regional fundraising milestones including more than $128,000 in Northern California, more than $75,000 in LA, and more than $55,000 in Orange County in support of the Giants Community Fund’s Junior Giants program, the LA Dodgers Foundation’s Dodgers DreamTeam, and the Angels Foundation’s Angels Nike RBI Leagues, respectively.

About Masons4Mitts
Since 2009, Masons4Mitts has been the signature public fundraising campaign of the Masons of California. Working with community fund partners at the San Francisco Giants, Los Angeles Dodgers, L.A. Angels, and San Diego Padres, Masons4Mitts allows members of the fraternity to donate funds to purchase and deliver high-quality, leather baseball mitts to young ballplayers throughout the state—many of whom do not have access to such equipment otherwise. Through Masons4Mitts, young players are provided with a safe place to learn and play the game, develop collaboration skills, learn about health and nutrition, build productive study habits, and more. Masons4Mitts has raised more than $2.3 million dollars for youth baseball programs since 2009 and is the largest single sponsor to many of its MLB partners’ community funds.
