For his part, baseball player Carlos Correa of the Minnesota Twins, who is the founder of this non-profit organization, said he was more than happy to continue supporting cancer patients and their families.
“My family and I started visiting these little heroes who fight daily against cancer to change their lives, but in the end they ended up changing ours,” said the Puerto Rican.
It should be noted that this is not the only charity event the couple attended, as they were present at a Houston Astros baseball game with several patients. They were also seen taking part in a fundraising dinner for Misión Alivio and Correa Family Foundation at BCN Taste & Tradition restaurant. As a result of their work together they were able to raise $50,000 dollars.
