Miracle League NWA

When Spencer was ten years old, he heard something on the radio that changed his life.

A baseball league was coming to Little Rock. For kids with special needs. Spencer, who had already survived a brain stem tumor and years of hospitalizations, looked up and said, "I could play that baseball."
He showed up. And what happened next is something his mom, Marilyn, still talks about.

"It was the very first place that opened up things he thought he would never be able to do," she says. "It gave him the confidence to try other things."

Spencer is thirty now. Double master's degree. Runs a university sports program. Climbed mountains in Scotland. Built friendships across the world.

The confidence that made all of it possible started on a baseball field that this community chose to build and sustain. Your support is what keeps that field open for the next child who needs it.
