Thank You for Supporting The Nate D Foundation’s First-Ever Online Auction!

December 2024

We are beyond grateful to everyone who participated in our inaugural online auction! Your bids and generous support bring us one step closer to providing critical resources, counseling, and community support for individuals seeking a fresh start. We raised just over $7,000.00.

Thanks to you, we are building a future where recovery is possible for everyone. Together, we’re making a real difference, and your involvement has been an essential part of that.

We truly appreciate your commitment to our cause, and we’re excited to continue this journey with you. Stay tuned for more opportunities to support our mission and help others in need.

With heartfelt thanks,
The Nate D Foundation Team

"Thank you" hardly captures the depth of our gratitude. To everyone who played in the tournament, volunteered, or simply stopped by for a hamburger or to cheer on some incredible ball — thank you for showing up and making this event so special.

This year’s tournament was another amazing success, and we’re thrilled to share that we’ll be sponsoring two more individuals to attend trauma therapy treatment this fall. Your continued support is truly life-changing, and we’re so grateful to be on this journey with each and every one of you.
