SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 2025

Step up to the plate and join NOAS for our Annual Home Team Celebration—a heartwarming, baseball-themed evening dedicated to helping foster youth find the loving families they deserve. Emcee is nationally recognized Rita Soronen, President and CEO of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption.

Doors open at 6:30 PM, just in time to settle in before the Guardians take on the Twins at 7:10 PM away in Minnesota. Throughout the night, you’ll enjoy a winning lineup of fun including live and chance auctions, a buffet dinner, fun games, a cash bar, a shot at winning $1,000, $750, or $500 in our cash raffle — three big winners! Meet-and-greet with Slider, the beloved Guardians mascot! Watch the game broadcast on the big screen while we come together to root for more than just a win on the field—we’re cheering for brighter futures for Ohio’s foster youth.
