Joe Torre Safe At Home Foundation A Worthy Cause

5:03PM | November 7, 2008 | posted by Doug Vannoni | comments: 0

As you’ll see on our video board, the Joe Torre Safe At Home Foundation had its annual Gala tonight at Chelsea Piers. Our MATT ESTREICH did a great job covering the event.

Yes, there were stars all over the place-the great 1998 Yankees team especially. But this is a cause worth supporting. Torre started this Foundation in 2002, in honor of his mother Margaret. The reason: To let kids AND adults know that there IS NO reason for anyone to be abused at home. The Joe Torre Foundation has 11 safe houses, all known as Margaret’s Place, in New York City, Westchester and New Jersey.

As I’ve written regarding the Sean Kimerling Testicular Cancer Foundation, please give all the support you can to this wonderful charity. I’m sure Joe and all those involved in his efforts are praying for the day all of us can feel ‘safe at home.
