ABOUT MISSION 3:18

Big League Impact’s MISSION 3:18 initiative empowers MLB players to give back during road series with one-day service opportunities that promote positive change in the communities they visit throughout the baseball season.

Launched during the 2023 MLB season, MISSION 3:18 supports our broader goal of helping pro athletes use their platforms for good and establish a legacy of service that transcends the baseball field.

Here are a few photos from MISSION 3:18 service outings over the past few seasons. For more photos from BLI and our charity partners, search #mission318 on social media.
