@Canscanministry @MLB Greg - just sent you some funds via PayPal! 😉

@Canscanministry Hoping everyone enjoys the day!😊

We will be setting up our Free Tables at this event with cards, toys, and more for kiddos in foster care.

It would be awesome if we could find a company, distributer, breaker, or other hobby presence to come along side us for these types of events. We are now doing events like this monthly in different areas of Southern Illinois focusing on providing free #thehobby experiences to children in foster care, low income areas, and more.

If you’d like to help us out, please shoot me an email, message, or DM.

Hey now!

This is a family we’ve been helping since the beginning.

They have since gone on to adopt their little guy.

#thehobby is capable of really great things!

Just dropped off a fresh delivery of Stadium Rips at Busch Stadium.

They are available in the Authentics Store inside Busch and in Ballpark Village.

It's difficult to overstate the significance of that last part. What this POTUS did was to expend a significant amount of allure the US had built up over decades, and has played a significant role in preserving our global position, encouraging the world to see behind the curtain.

[Greg Poole @Canscanministry]

If anyone out there in #thehobby is looking for a home for unwanted commons, base, inserts, and more - please consider us.

On top of our shop we recently launched our Stadium Rips at Busch Stadium.

In a short period of time this product has allowed us to purchased multiple cribs and beds for local foster families, allowed us to establish the Thumbs Up Fund to aide with medical and social needs for local special needs students, and funded various other programs we run.

We will also be taking our job skills trainees to their first baseball game ever!

@Canscanministry Congrats! If you need more cards, I have more I can send your way.

[Greg Poole @Canscanministry]

We are prepping to pitch/launch the first charitable #thehobby product at an MLB Stadium. If you’d like to learn how you can chip in, don’t hesitate to ask! This has the potential to help so many people in our area.

[The Breaks @WatchTheBreaks]

The Hobby has always been People > Cards. Cards are just a really fun glue that binds us between sports fandom, player fandom, competition. Cards bring us closer to each other while bringing us closer to the games we love.

In that space and the community built up for it around Twitter, there are very few people who have done more while caring more for those people and the COMMUNITY of cards more than my friend Chris @CrackinWax.

From pioneering community-led Charity Breaks that all could trust, to always fighting for the most specific player collector on the tiniest budget, Chris is a great human being and will always have some of my fondest hobby community memories

Writing this to share my appreciation and as a tribute, as I understand he is stepping away from cards at this time in a very thoughtful manner, as he always carries out any action he starts, and he deserves to hear from so many of us our thanks for all he has done over the years to make collecting, the chase, and the community better.

Above all else, I'm hopeful he continues to share personal updates on Twitter as his humor, insights, and beliefs are a journey I don't want to stop following, and it's the point of social media imo to enrich our lives by understanding the breadth of the humanity around us.

Thank you Chris for being a great friend and enriching us all with your presence and contributions.
