ABOUT US

SoCal Double Play Foundation is a nonprofit organization bringing gently used baseball equipment to children around the world. At SoCal Double Play Foundation, we believe every young athlete deserves the chance to play, regardless of financial barriers. We collect gently used youth sports equipment and donate it to athletes in need across Southern California. By giving gear a second life, we’re not only reducing waste but also creating more opportunities for kids to stay active, build confidence, and enjoy the sports they love. Join us in making a difference—because every child deserves their shot at the game!

OUR STORY

The Beginning

What began as a local mission by three ballplayers—Sebastien, Trevor, and Vincent—has grown into a global effort to keep the game of baseball accessible. Recognizing that rising equipment costs often sideline talented youth, the SoCal Double Play Foundation gathers and delivers new and used gear to communities in need, ensuring that no child is ever left out of the dugout due to a lack of resources

The Mission

The SoCal Double Play Foundation was founded with one clear objective: to provide every child the opportunity to play baseball. We recognize that equipment costs should never be the reason a talented athlete is left on the sidelines. Our mission is to provide the gear and resources needed to ensure that the sport is accessible to everyone, everywhere.

The Growth

What started as a local equipment drive has transformed into a global pipeline for the sport of baseball. Founded by Sebastien, Trevor, and Vincent, the SoCal Double Play Foundation was built on a simple realization: passion for the game is universal, but resources are not. We have expanded our reach far beyond our roots, delivering new and used gear to underserved youth across borders. As we continue to grow, our mission remains the same—ensuring that resources never dictate a child’s ability to step up to the plate.
