Raise money for Miracle League of the South Hills

We are bringing the game of baseball to children who may have never had the opportunity to play on a real field. By building a custom-designed field with a cushioned rubberized surface to help prevent injuries, wheelchair accessible dugouts and a completely flat surface to eliminate any barriers to wheel-chair bound or visually impaired players, the field has eliminated the challenges that prevent many children from playing the game of baseball.

In addition to giving kids the chance to play the game we are dedicated to bringing together children through our “Buddies” program. We believe that the baseball field is a place that can connect all children by building teamwork and friendship.

Your contribution will help us as we continue to grow and expand our programs for the kids and adults of the Miracle League of the South Hills. The Miracle League of the South Hills is home to 400 athletes from the ages of 5-60+, from over 60 zip codes throughout, and around the city of Pittsburgh.

It’s almost funny how simple it can be. An empty lot. A patch of dirt. Some lines of chalk. A community park where dreams and desire take root. A global stage where heroes and legends are born. A classroom where lessons and character are shaped. A field. While they do take on a life of their own, they don’t build themselves. This particular diamond started as the wish of a hometown boy, MLB All-Star Sean Casey, who wanted to give back. To share his love of the game with those who otherwise might only watch from the stands. And as the plays and smiles grew, so did the park where all are welcome. A place that has attracted many. Many who share a passion not only for the game, but for the lessons it imparts. While it may have started as a way of saying thank you, this field has grown into a community, or better yet, a family. And like any family's love, there is room to grow. Here, the impact of each gift can be seen, felt, and even hugged. For at this field, between these lines, miracles happen.

Our programs include:

  • A six week baseball season in the spring and fall
  • Muscles for Miracles offseason training program
  • The Next Inning job skills training through our concession and merchandise stand where we hire and pay our athletes to work while developing skills in customer service, cashier skills, custodial work, and more
  • Our annual events such as the Halloween Extravaganza and End of Year dance party
  • The Miracle League Gives Back program where we teach our kids the importance of giving back to others as so many have given to us
  • Angels in the Outfield program where we make sure that all our families have a wonderful holiday season
  • Annual Football and Cheer Camp as we begin to introduce new sports to our athletes
  • New adventures, including the first-ever Miracle League Travel Team program...the South Hills Miracle Pirates!
