ABOUT:
The EPAT -Ball/P.M. & The Junior Giants programs are affiliates of the San Francisco Junior Giants and are dedicated to teaching the fundamentals of baseball in a free, noncompetitive and character-based environment.
Junior Giants is the flagship program of the San Francisco Giants Community Fund, a 501 (c)3 nonprofit organization. The program was creed to provide underserved children living in inner cities and rural communities across California, Nevada and Oregon the opportunity to run the bases, rather than the streets, each summer.
Through the support of the community the organization continues to provide at-risk children with programs that empower them for life. The Junior Giants program is designed to help children who want to be successful but need a little guidance.
