Come join us at the ballpark on Friday, July 12th and Saturday, July 13th for Strike Out Hunger!

Fans who donate at least three non-perishable food items before games on Friday and Saturday will receive a voucher for a free ticket to a future Reds game.A maximum of one voucher is available per person.

COLLECTION POINTS: Volunteers will be available to accept donations near the stadium’s main entrance on Crosley Terrace and along Joe Nuxhall Way near the Reds Hall of Fame & Museum. Donations will be accepted from 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Friday and from 2:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday.

All donated food is distributed through St. Vincent de Paul’s Becky & Ted Catino Choice Food Pantry in the West End and St. Vincent de Paul’s network of 13 neighborhood food pantries in Greater Cincinnati.

There are nearly 115,000 food insecure residents in Hamilton County—enough to fill the Great American Ball Park seats two and a half times over. The good news is that if we all pull together, we can make a difference.

Last summer, fans donated over 10,000 pounds of food to the Strike Out Hunger drive, enough to provide nearly 7,500 meals for neighbors in need. Let’s hit a home run again this year!

Thank you, Reds fans, for your continued support and generosity!
