⭐️ Community Spotlight Series ⭐️
Gloversville Little League knocked their spring fundraiser out of the park this year! What makes this success even more meaningful is the impact it has on the club. With rising costs in youth sports, the funds raised will help cover opportunities, operations, and increasing program expenses — keeping baseball affordable and accessible!
A huge shoutout to Kelli and Gloversville Little League for being incredible partners! Their leadership, along with the hard work of the community, made a massive impact on this year’s success. Congrats Little Huskies! This season Gloversville Little League raised over $7,000 for all the awesome stuff you can see below!
Community Spotlight - Kelli Faville DeMaio
What inspired you to get involved with Little League, and what keeps you passionate about it year after year?
My journey with GLL started 20 years ago as a parent of two boys who played in the league. Watching all the great things GLL did for players inspired me to get involved and stay involved even long after my sons aged out. My dad was also a huge part of GLL, so staying involved helps me keep his legacy alive in this community. The youth here are worth every bit of it!
What’s your favorite part about watching the players grow both on and off the field throughout the season?
Watching the kids smile as they walk to their dugout before the game or step up for their at bat -that is literally the best part of it! But beyond the game itself, seeing them learn what it means to be part of a team, guided by our incredible volunteer coaches, is truly priceless. That growth you can’t put a number on.
What message would you like to share with the families, coaches, and young athletes in your community?
To our families -
Thank you for trusting GLL with your children and for giving your time so generously.
To our volunteers-
There are simply no words that can fully express the gratitude we have for our volunteers. The time, energy, and heart that each of you pour into this program does not go unnoticed. From our coaches and board members who show up day after day to teach these kids not just the game of baseball and softball, but life lessons that will carry them far beyond the field -you are the backbone of GLL. None of this works without you. Your sacrifice of time away from your own families to invest in ours means everything. We are so blessed to have such an incredible group of people who love this community and these kids as much as we do. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts!
To our young athletes -
Keep showing up, keep learning, and let the love of this game grow. YOU ARE the reason we are all here!
Why Ryan Adrenaline Fundraising - Raise365 and what does the funds raised mean for your program?
Ryan is great to work with! He always comes with new ideas and is genuinely willing to incorporate our ideas as well. He makes the fundraising process run so smoothly, and his quick response time and attentiveness make all the difference. We truly couldn’t ask for a better partner! The funds raised are going toward something that is so important to us, purchasing multiple AED machines. This will allow us to open up MORE practice locations for our players, knowing that we have the safety equipment in place to protect every child on that field. It’s an investment in both the growth and the safety of our program, and we are so grateful for everyone who makes it possible!
