Play Ball for Peyton's Pals - Helping Kids We Will Never Meet

For 36 years, Tom Vartanian has played senior baseball to raise money for charities. He will step up to the plate again to play 50 innings in a one-week 75+ baseball tournament in November for Peyton’s Pals who, like Peyton, are receiving care at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center for rare endocrine conditions. 

How will your funds be used?

With your generosity, families whose children are receiving endocrinology care at Johns Hopkins will have access to the Healthy Families program which provides food, supplies, and personal training to needy families and with your help will add a virtual 24/7 Healthy Families program that will go live this fall.

Your support will also help the Division of Pediatric Endocrinology invest in new equipment and launch accredited pediatric virtual courses so that doctors, fellows, and pediatric specialists across the country can gain the expertise needed to care for these children.

Please give the gift of hope to reassure families that they are not alone on their journey in their efforts to better these children’s lives. 

Thank you.
