Fundación CDB, Conociendo a Dios en Baseball Español Give

Baseball opens the door.Christ transforms lives.

We are a Dominican foundation that uses baseball to bring the Gospel to children, youth and families, and to train leaders who strengthen the church in their communities. We also provide academic skills development, meals and health talks for teens.

Who we are

We are a Christian nonprofit based in Hato Mayor del Rey, Dominican Republic. We serve children, youth and families through sports, education and discipleship, alongside local churches.

We have been on the field since 2012 alongside Meeting God In Baseball, and as a Dominican foundation since 2016.

Vision

Lives restored in Christ, families strengthened, churches multiplying and communities transformed.

Mission

To reach, develop, strengthen and equip people and families to make disciples who transform their world for the glory of God.

A family around the table

In our communities, church is lived out as a family. We share meals, pray for one another and study God's Word together, so no one walks alone.

A shared table, a shared faith.

Youth league program

We work with two youth baseball leagues, Alejandro Bass and Batey Margarita. Together with the local church and Meeting God In Baseball, we walk with players and their families through:

  • Biblical discipleship
  • English classes
  • Academic skills development through the Super Star Student program, offered free of charge to our children

A true story

A life restored

When her marriage ended unexpectedly, a young mother was left alone with her little daughter, under heavy financial and emotional strain, and fell into deep depression. Her church family surrounded her with love, prayer and practical support.

Today she is restored in the Lord and serves as a leader in her church.

Her name and community are withheld to protect her identity.
