Senior Smiles. Mr. Mets at the CBN/RI Older Adult Center
Senior Smiles is just one of multiple programs the Foundation organizes in support of communities. You don’t have to be a baseball fan to appreciate its good works.
The Amazin’ Mets Foundation is led by Alex Cohen.
The Amazin’ Mets Foundation is committed to providing needed services and opportunities to children, families, and underserved groups in our neighborhoods and communities near Citi Field.
Together we can inspire change and make a lasting impact on and off the field.
