The Ted Rasberry Youth League (TRYL) is the primary recipient of the Whitecaps Community Foundation’s charitable efforts. Since 1995, more than a quarter of a million dollars has been pledged to the program, allowing more than 40,000 children the opportunity to participate in organized baseball and softball. With the help of Lake Michigan Credit Union, the David D. Hunting YMCA and Meijer, children have had the chance to be a part of a program designed to teach the fundamentals of baseball, sportsmanship, and the positive values of respect, responsibility, honesty and caring.
