The Tampa Yankees will be participating in HOPE Week (Helping Others Preserve & Excel) during the week of June 19-24, 2014.

The Tampa Yankees players and staff will be visiting patients and their families at local area hospitals including:
- Tampa General Hospital
- St. Joseph’s Hospital
- All Children’s Hospital
The Tampa based minor league Yankees players will also be visiting the Children’s Home: a child-and family-centered organization that is positioned to care for struggling families and children seeking the comfort of a loving family.
Where Love Grows will be hosting a Victoria’s Good Table dinner in the Yankees pavilion at Steinbrenner Field. Where Love Grows is a Tampa based non-profit organization. They wanted to partner with the Tampa Yankees to benefit the children of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Tampa Bay in celebration of HOPE Week.
