SAN DIEGO, Calif. – Following the devastating earthquake and subsequent tsunami that hit Japan on Friday afternoon, the San Diego Padres today announced that they will raise funds to aid victims of the disaster. President/Chief Operating Officer Tom Garfinkel made the announcement.
“At a time like this we feel that it is important for the global community to become involved and support the people of Japan,” said Garfinkel. “Our thoughts and prayers go out to the individuals and families affected by the devastation and we pledge to help support the relief efforts as Japan begins to rebuild.”
The Padres will raise funds as part of their Japanese Heritage Night scheduled for Friday, May 20 vs. the Seattle Mariners. The club will also match donations via the Padres Foundation. More details about this effort will be announced as information becomes available.
