Partnership Opportunities Website

Since Trenton Thunder's inception in 1994, there came a commitment from the organization to be a part of the community in which it was established.

To date, the Grand Slam We Care Foundation has donated over $7.6 million worth of goods, services and monetary donations, through a variety of community programs.

The Thunder created the F.I.E.L.D. (Focused Initiative for Enhanced Learning and Development) Program in 2016.

It's mission is help renovate and revitalize our local community's little league fields.

TICKETS FOR KIDS

Each season the Thunder teams up with corporations to provide tickets to deserving non-profit groups as part of the Tickets For Kids program. This program allows children to enjoy all the fun surrounding a professional baseball game when they might not ordinarily be able to do so.

Since the 1996 season, over 67,000 children have enjoyed Thunder baseball because of this program.
