"Ready to Take the Diamond

and Strike Out Domestic Violence" 

Operation For HOPE Foundation extends a huge thank you for the tremendous support in making the '3rd Annual Ready to Take the Diamond and Strike Out Domestic Violence' charity fundraiser a success!

TEAM SAN DIEGO VS TEAM POWAY -- Nine innings of coed softball to benefit the Operation For HOPE Foundation - HOPE Fund. A charity fundraiser and day filled with tremendous community collaboration. The players enjoyed the healthy competition while the fans enjoyed watching them strategize to win.

Master of Ceremonies Carlo Cecchetto transcended the importance and significance of the needed charity fundraiser by highlighting how each player, coach, volunteer, sponsor, fan, and support joined together to benefit the HOPE Fund.

 The HOPE Fund is a program of the Operation for HOPE Foundation -- micro emergency loans that remove economic barriers for domestic violence victims and their children.
