OUR IMPACT
Since our founding, the Rayzors Foundation has raised more than $35,500 to support mental health programs and initiatives here in Western New York.
These funds directly benefit organizations that provide life-changing care, advocacy, and support for those facing mental health challenges.
Fundraising is only part of the story. The real impact is what happens when people can access the care, resources, education, and support they need.
Mental Health Awareness
7th Inning Stretch
One Community. One Cause. Seven Days of Baseball.
In August 2027, the Rayzors Foundation will launch the Mental Health Awareness 7th Inning Stretchโa week-long baseball and softball fundraiser bringing athletes, families, businesses, and communities together in support of mental health awareness.
Featuring youth and adult divisions, seven days of competition, mental health awareness activities, and a Home Run Derby at Sahlen Field, the 7th Inning Stretch is more than a tournamentโitโs an opportunity to break the stigma, build hope, and support mental health programs throughout Western New York.
