Although the Rays are under .500 at the moment, there is a recent bright spot in the organization. The Rays Foundation just recently gave $150,000 to twenty-nine different non-profit organizations in the Tampa Bay area. Some of the organization include the YMCA and the Boys and Girls Club of America. The Rays Foundation also gives money through a number of grant programs. The players that have been contributing include Crawford, Iwamura, Kazmir, Longoria, Pena, Percival, Shields and Wheeler. Together these players will give one million dollars through out their contracts. It is very positive to see that the players are using their money to help the youth in the local neighborhoods, these donations help to make a positive impact on the community around Tampa.
