LINC knows it can make all the difference to have the right people supporting you from the sidelines.

For over a decade, the New York Yankees have been rooting for LINC and investing in community-powered literacy.

From providing funding for community reading programs, to being a Reading on the Rails destination, to serving up ballpark memories for our donors and our families – the Yankees continue to go to bat for our community.

Take a peek inside LINC’s collaboration with the New York Yankees and our work across the Bronx with this very special segment of Bronx Beat, produced by the YES Network.

Support starts with showing up. For young children, a caring adult’s smile, words, and encouragement can help spark a lifelong love of learning.

A mother’s delighted smile when her baby babbles.
A father’s open arms as his daughter takes her first steps.
A teacher’s patient encouragement as a child sounds out a new word.

Adults that participate in LINC programming are inspired and motivated to support their child’s early literacy journey. LINC provides the tools and resources that make it easy, fun, and meaningful for them to do so. And we couldn’t do it without the support we get from our community partners, like the New York Yankees, who help make this work possible. 

Thank you to the Yankees organization for your partnership, your love of community, and your commitment to literacy.

And as the Bronx Bombers head into the postseason, we’re wishing them a great October. Congratulations on another postseason berth, and thank you for continuing to be in LINC’s corner!
