Jesse's Wish for a Backyard Baseball Field

7-year-old Jesse’s wish was a home run thanks to the incredible support from the Slaughter and Baton Rouge communities.

Granting wishes for kids like Jesse change and inspire people - but in this case - an entire community came together and will for years to come. Jesse loved every moment of his opening day! One of the many touching moments was Jesse throwing the first pitch to his dad. Thank you to the 50+ individuals and companies in Baton Rouge and Slaughter, LA for pouring out their hearts (and dirt and building fences for weeks) into this wish to have a baseball field.
