BALTIMORE — Due to the protests occurring in Baltimore, Maryland, two baseball games at Camden Yards have been cancelled (April 27-28), one will be closed to the public (April 29), and three have been moved to Tropicana Field in Florida (May 1-3).

As a result, hundreds of employees at Camden Yards will not be required to work and will miss out on anywhere between one and six days of pay. (Note: Employees received two hours' pay on April 27.) Many of them struggle as is to make ends meet and can't afford to miss a day of work. Lengthy road trips are tough as well, as they are paid biweekly. This fund is designed to help alleviate some of the financial burden Camden Yards employees will suffer.

Please consider donating to help them get through what is a very stressful time in Baltimore.
