(Trenton, NJ) - The Trenton Thunder, the Double-A Affiliate of the New York Yankees, have announced that the third annual "Gift of Baseball" program is now underway. The "Gift of Baseball" initiative is a way Thunder fans can give Thunder tickets to underprivileged families this holiday season.

This is the third consecutive year that the Thunder have teamed with the Children's Home Society of New Jersey for this program. For each Thunder season ticket, half season ticket, Mini Ticket Package or Pic-A-Plan purchased between now and December 20 the Thunder will supply one underprivileged family with tickets to a Thunder game. Each of the families receiving tickets will be part of the Holiday Gift Outreach program run by Children's Home Society.

Thunder season tickets, half season tickets, Mini Ticket Packages and Pic-A-Plans are all on sale now by calling 609-394-3300 or online at www.trentonthunder.com.

Over the last two years, fans helped the Thunder donate 1,200 tickets to the families involved with this program.

"Our hope is that we will be able to provide even more families with a night at the ballpark in their stockings this year," said Thunder General Manager Brad Taylor.

The Children's Home Society of New Jersey provides at-risk children and their families with a range of services that empower them to achieve their potential. They are child-oriented, family focused, community based, and outcome-oriented.
