From employees in Mumbai, who partnered with the Uddan India Foundation for a cricket match with children in need, to more than 70 employees in Jacksonville helping adults with intellectual and developmental differences, and to our Manchester employees painting, landscaping, and cleaning up local areas. A heartfelt thank you to our Fanatics employees for rolling up your sleeves to make a difference. A special shout out to the hundreds of site leads who spearheaded these projects.
