Joshua 1:Nine Home Run Derby 2026
Hit dingers & support youth baseball! Join our Home Run Derby to help fund gear, coaching & opportunity for kids in the Dominican Republic!
Get ready to swing for the fences! The Joshua 1:Nine Home Run Derby is a fun, family-friendly fundraiser open to youth, teens, and adults of all skill levels. Whether you're stepping up to the plate or cheering from the stands, this evening will be packed with baseball, food, music, and community spirit—all for a great cause.
All proceeds go directly to Joshua 1:Nine, a Spokane-based nonprofit supporting youth baseball in Fondo Negro, Dominican Republic. Funds raised help provide uniforms, equipment, field maintenance, and leadership programs for young players who otherwise wouldn’t have access to organized sports.
