Fundraiser To Support Little League After Burglary

CASTRO VALLEY, CA — The coronavirus shelter-in-place order had already been bad news for the Treeview Little League's season, cancelling opening day and putting games on hold, but then burglars sacked the league's clubhouse twice.

The league says the thieves made off with all their uniforms and equipment, even all the food and drink from the snack bar. Organizers say they were hit twice in just a few short days, and one of the burglaries happened right in the middle of the day.

The Little League teams says they'd already been struggling for the past few years, but had been doing okay until this burglary. Now they're asking for the community's help to stay afloat.

The league has set up a fundraiser with gofundme, it can be found here. Less than a week after posting, the fundraiser has already raised more than the $5,000 initial goal, but they are still collecting additional donations to support their teams.

The league says it's grateful for the outpouring of support they've already received.

The Treeview Little League is run entirely by volunteers and have been serving the community since 1962.
