For the 2025 season, the Detroit Tigers Foundation and Dunham’s are proud to evolve the Gloves for Kids presented by Dunham’s program through a new partnership with Leveling the Playing Field (LPF) — a nonprofit organization dedicated to expanding access to sports by providing free equipment to under-resourced communities.
This year’s Gloves for Kids campaign will power equipment donations and grants that reach even more young athletes across Michigan. As part of this enhanced effort:
- Leveling the Playing Field collection bins are placed at key locations, allowing fans to donate new and gently used equipment. Check LPF’s bin locator for a bin near you.
- Teams, schools, and community organizations in need of equipment are encouraged to apply directly through Leveling the Playing Field to receive an equipment grant.
By teaming up with LPF, the Tigers Foundation and Dunham’s are expanding the spirit of Gloves for Kids—helping ensure more kids have the equipment they need to play the games they love.
