EBONY spoke to Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp, who revealed his favorite Legend songs, which include “All of Me.” Upon hearing that, the singer said, “I hope everybody is singing along. We’re going to have fun tonight.”
The money raised will go toward the expansion of the LADF’s direct youth programs in underprivileged communities in greater Los Angeles. Included among them are Dodgers RBI,a development program that aims to increase participation in baseball to help to improve access to education, literacy, health and wellness resources; and Dodgers Dreamfields, an initiative that builds and refurbishes baseball and softball fields for the youth to have safe spaces for positive recreational activity in their neighborhoods. This year, the LADF will be constructing its 50th field.
