CBS Kiwanis Minor Baseball has been named one of 15 recipients of the 2025 Jays Care Field of Dreams grant.
Announced Sunday on Sportsnet, the funding—supported by TD—will help upgrade Jim Crosbie Field, enhancing safety and accessibility for local youth.
CBS is the only organization in Newfoundland and Labrador selected. In total, the Jays Care Foundation is investing over $1.5 million this year.
“This is a big day for baseball in CBS,” said Todd Powell, president of CBS Kiwanis Minor Baseball.
He tells VOCM News, this funding means they can make the field accessible for everyone, including athletes in the Challenger Baseball program. Powell adds that they are not just building a ballfield—but building a community space where all kids can play and grow.
Since its launch, the program has supported 232 projects nationwide, with more than $20 million invested.
