Each morning, our inbox fills with requests for support from people across our local communities.
Measuring the impact of our work is not always easy. We are committed to protecting the dignity and privacy of those we serve, which means we do not document people during times of crisis or hardship.
While these stories often go unseen, the work continues every day—meeting urgent needs, supporting local families, and making a meaningful difference in our community
We are so thankful for our partners in #thehobby and beyond who make filling requests like these possible.

We bought 175 autographed cards from @CheckOutMyCards for kids who met different goals throughout the school year. I ordered with plenty of time and even paid for the expedited shipping option. Now they are already multiple weeks late, won't return emails, and if the order tracking is correct, there are currently 9,300 orders in front of mine. I am assuming there is zero chance I am getting these with a chance to deliver them....
So, as of right now, I am basically desperate. Does anyone in #thehobby have any idea where I can purchase some bulk autos in a relatively short time frame?
Thanks to all who continue to donate and make purchases from us -
Last night our city experienced a large water main break and they had to shut the water completely off.
This morning we were able to make the rounds delivering drinking and bathroom water to local senior citizens in our community.
Funding, as always, comes from those purchases.

Who's going to be at The National this year?
I've long wanted to go, but it never worked out. That changes this summer (sweet!). Absolutely cannot wait.
If you're going to be there, hit me up!
The environment has changed. Counterfeits are more frequent, more sophisticated, and harder to spot than ever. The 2025 Fraud Report details what PSA is seeing across the hobby and the systems helping protect collectors. https://t.co/f2MnicMVpG
Had the pleasure of sponsoring a Mother’s Day project for a local like skills classroom. Bonus, we got to spend time with them this morning arraigning flowers for their moms.

Back at the ballpark for Brewers-Cardinals today!
If you want a FREE junk wax pack or a Brewers/Cardinals card, just let me know (reply/DM) and head up top toward the press box.
Catchers are better at ABS challenges than batters, which isn’t really a surprise. But is that making hitting — already tough considering the velocity and movement from today’s pitchers — even tougher?
The new ABS challenge system for balls and strikes is one of the biggest stories of the 2026 MLB season.
@ryanfagan explains how it’s working – literally and results-wise.

This years senior portraits have made their way back from our photographer!
All sitting fees and prints are free of charge thanks to the wonderful generosity of our dear friend Stephanie Smith and #thehobby. When you make purchases or donations this is the type of community project(s) you are funding!

@mikeyBcards Love that you're doing this! Greg at @Canscanministry does more for kids with baseball cards than anyone I've ever seen. Would be great if you could send a couple of these boxes his way! I'm happy to help with the shipping costs, too.
Today, we were able to provide a new bed for a child who was removed from his home and placed in care.

We have a lot of different service projects upcoming - from our usual meal deliveries, Resource Center Dates to our special events like Free Senior Portraits, Champions League Events, Bike Giveaways and more.
So much of our funding comes from #thehobby and while we love a good hustle, we would sure love to chat with any companies, breakers, vendors, etc that could help us serve even more individuals in need in our community!
