“We are so excited for the generous support the Phillies Charities, Inc. has given BennettStrong,” said co-founder Mary Pellegrino. “We’ve been able to make memories at the ballpark while raising awareness and funds for children in our community. Now, with this grant, we have fully funded the first phase of our NI/ICU (neonatal/infant intensive care unit) parent survival kits. We’ll be moving onto the next phase of this project, as well as exploring some new projects we’ve only been able to dream about doing. We’d like to thank the Phillies Charities, Inc. for their support of families and children with complex medical needs.”

In the past year, Phillies Charities, Inc. awarded more than $2 million to a variety of charitable organizations. Phillies Charities, Inc. serves as the fundraising arm of the Phillies organization and awards grants to a variety of charitable organizations each year.
