St. Louis Cardinals legend Adam Wainwright and United Way of Greater St. Louis are teaming up to increase community service across the nation in towns where Major League Baseball visits.
Wainwright and his nonprofit organization, Big League Impact, will offer opportunities for players to serve nationwide, providing local people with basic needs such as food, healthcare, education, and more. United Way spokesperson Katie Felts says Wainwright is a very philanthropic person.
United Way’s Volunteer Center connects people to thousands of volunteer opportunities to serve the community every year. This opportunity in particular will give the nonprofits they’re helping more bandwidth to provide better support and resources to the people who look to them for help.
