Education and literacy are at the forefront of the Phillies' community efforts. Using baseball to teach in fun and innovative ways, the Phillies have partnered with various organizations to provide programs with an eye on education.
Be a Phanatic About Reading encourages children in kindergarten through eighth grade to read for a minimum of 15 minutes a day to improve literacy and comprehension skills.
Phillies Phundamentals is an after-school/summer camp program that makes learning fun by using the theme of baseball to teach and reinforce academic skills.
This season the club will celebrate teachers during the 12th Annual Teacher Appreciation Night.
