HOW TO CONTACT MARINERS CARE ........................ 20

One of the key aspects of the Seattle Mariners presence in the Pacific Northwest is the team’s commitment to give back to the community. Major League Baseball provides wonderful opportunities for the Mariners, our fans, our players, our corporate partners, and our staff to make a positive impact on the quality of life in the Northwest, especially for children.

Through Mariners Care, the Seattle Mariners non-profit foundation, over $1,203,520 was raised for youth programs in 2015. In addition, Mariners Care programs were able to benefit hundreds of charities in our community and

thousands of youngsters were able to attend a Major League game. I am particularly proud of our players, coaches, and staff who personally supported these activities with hundreds of volunteer hours.

Mariners Care is committed to making the Pacific Northwest a better place for our children to grow up by impacting youth-oriented community service programs and other worthy projects with the support they desperately need and deserve.

The Mariners wish to thank everyone throughout our community who has been a part of Mariners Care. The story is captured on the following pages and we hope you will join us in our continuing efforts to expand the work of Mariners Care.

Warmest regards,

Howard Lincoln Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Seattle Mariners

the Mariners from 1981-86. Following his playing career, Dave joined the

Mariners in the broadcast booth as a broadcaster. Beloved by coaches,

teammates and fans, the man they called Hendu will be missed.

“Dave was one of the most popular Mariners in our history, but Dave was also one

of the most popular players in Red Sox and A’s history. He had a special ability

to connect with people, both inside the game and in the communities in which he

lived. I never saw him at the ballpark without a big smile on his face.”
