In-Kind Donation Requests

The purpose of this donation program is to assist many deserving organizations to raise necessary funds for their respective causes. Therefore, memorabilia donations are only available for auctions and raffles to benefit non-profit organizations. Memorabilia may NOT be sold for a profit or for personal gain.

Program Details

All requests must be received 5 weeks prior to the donation deadline date. Due to the high volume of requests, the Rays must limit donations to 501(c)3 nonprofits that reside within the state of Florida. The Rays directly support the local chapter of all national charities and therefore cannot donate to third party fundraisers (Relay for Life Teams, United Way Campaigns, Breast Cancer 3-Days, etc).
