  • Minor League Baseball and Its Clubs Embodied the Mission of Milb
    2019 MiLBTM COMMUNITY REPORT LETTER FROM PAT O’CONNER LETTER FROM PAT Dear Friends and Colleagues, Thank you for your efforts in making 2019 another successful philanthropic year for Minor League Baseball, our 160 teams and MiLB Charities. As we prepare for the 2020 season, we have many accomplishments from last season to celebrate. None of our efforts would be possible without the great work of our teams, continued dedication from staff at the national office and the support of our millions of fans nationwide. For a fifth straight year, all 160 clubs reported their charitable giving and contributions, allowing us to accurately assess our collective efforts. It gives me great pleasure to say that in 2019, MiLB Charities donated nearly $50 million in cash and gifts in kind from our teams, leagues and partners — once again setting a new record-high total. In addition, MiLB and its teams nearly doubled our volunteer efforts from 2018, giving more than 26,000 hours in service of our communities. This report highlights MiLB Charities’ many programs and initiatives, including the MiLB CommUNITY Initiative presented by Allegiant Air, the Stars & Stripes Caps Program with New Era Cap Company, the Derrick Hall Pro-State Foundation Father’s Day Initiative, Ed Randall’s Fans For the Cure, the Joe Torre Safe At Home Domestic Violence Awareness Initiative, and the “Cover Your Bases” Sun Safety Initiative with the American Cancer Society. These are just a few of the ways our teams and partners are working together to make positive and lasting impacts in our MiLB communities.

    MLB IN THE COMMUNITY 2017 Office of the Commissioner MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL ROBERT D. MANFRED, JR. Commissioner of Baseball Dear Friends and Colleagues: Baseball’s ability to bring people together is one of the virtues that has long made it our National Pastime. The game affords all of us with countless opportunities to create memories for fans and to impact the causes that are important to them. For Major League Baseball and its 30 Clubs, this unique stature represents a true privilege — one that we honor. MLB’s 2017 Community Affairs Report highlights the many ways in which our game strives to be a sound corporate citizen. All of our Clubs are firmly committed to making a difference in their communities. Together, our Clubs and players shine a light on worthy causes, individuals and organizations throughout the season. Centrally, MLB has formed core partnerships with Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Stand Up To Cancer and the Jackie Robinson Foundation. Imparting their values is vital to us. In our ongoing focus on youth baseball and softball participation, we consistently emphasize the need for young people to become constructive members of their communities. Baseball entertains and intrigues from Spring Training through the World Series. At its very best, our game also has the ability to inspire. Our Community Affairs Report exemplifies the spirit of service that links all of us throughout Major League Baseball. Sincerely, Robert D. Manfred, Jr. Commissioner of Baseball LEGENDS JACKIE ROBINSON DAY On April 15, 1947, Jackie Robinson broke Major League Baseball’s color barrier by stepping onto Ebbets Field to play for the Brooklyn Dodgers.

  • Indian River Furniture Taps Care Sector with Smart Beds, Recliners
    Brevard Business BBN News Vol. 32 No. 41 October 13, 2014 $1.00 A Weekly Space Coast Business Magazine with Publishing Roots in America since 1839 Indian River Furniture taps care sector with smart beds, recliners By Ken Datzman ROCKLEDGE — Furniture manufacturers see the future in one old–fashioned piece of their industry that has long been ignored and is now being transformed and repackaged for the consumer market. Manufacturers are positioning themselves in the fast–rising smart–bed technology segment, where innovative product design and engineering features are wooing buyers in a new way. Beds, once thought of as ancient technology, have been re- vamped by manufacturers with the bells and whistles of the modern–day tech devices that consumers clamor for. These new bed products are designed around comfort, and not only target the aging population but also a wide range of other users in general. Some of the new–generation luxury beds are equipped with motors and lifts, have multimedia options, surround–sound capability, integrated–massage systems, and other leading technologies. The new battleground for home–furnishing manufacturers looks to be “smart–bed technology,” which is being embraced by growing numbers of consumers across various disposable–income categories. Local retailers say sales of these beds are on the rise, in a county where roughly 25 percent of the population is comprised of people age 65 and older. “One of the beds we’ve just received from a vendor is Wi–Fi capable. There are speakers in the base of the bed,” said Bridget Lilly, the longtime buyer and interior designer for Indian River Furniture, a 75–year–old family owned, full–service multi–brand retailer that is making a push into this particular sector of the industry.

Fortunately, our classmates have kept the gouge locker from running empty. You guys make my job easy! Let’s start with a reminder to check out the Distinguished Graduate Award page on the USNA Alumni website. The videos and speeches from this year’s ceremony are now posted. Go to “Distinguished Graduate Award” under “About Us,” then click on DGA Recipients near the bottom right side. It’s my opinion that Carl June’s acceptance speech is one of the most humble, straight-from-the heart talks the Brigade has ever heard. Photo 75#1: “Erwin Wunderlich and his son, EJ Jr. ’99” Erwin Wunderlich sent a photo and a short e-mail. EJ Senior pinned on EJ Junior’s LCOL insignia earlier this year at his Quantico office. EJ Jr. was invited to the upcoming national championship for triathletes, but had to decline as he and wife Kim have a newborn on the way then. At least he will be in-country for this little one! Here is a wonderful story that would never have happened without the thoughtfulness, generosity, and dedication of two of our classmates—plus a timely email from Chick Cikanovich. Several years ago, Mike Zeiders started the Quality of Life Foundation with this mission: “We seek to improve the quality of life of individuals and families who provide daily, substantial care for catastrophically wounded, ill, or injured veterans.
