As part of our ongoing program in the Dominican Republic, Parley teamed up with Players for the Planet to raise awareness and take action in the world of baseball, the DR’s most popular sport. Players for the Planet co-founder, Chris Dickerson, who is also a former MLB player and a Parley AIR pledger, led the first cleanup in collaboration with pro-baseball players. Among the attendees were Robinson Cano, Amed Rosario, Mel Rojas Jr., as well as members of the the New York Yankees and Oakland Athletics training academies.
“You don’t have to be rich and you don’t have to be an athlete to make a difference in your community. You may feel that efforts go unrecognized but it’s the persistence in your efforts that will inspire true change.”
– Robinson Cano
