Jeremy Feder All-Star Charity Baseball Tournament

This year marks the fourth Annual Jeremy Feder All-Star Charity Baseball Tournament. The event, featuring youth baseball players from the greater Long Island area, will take place Sept. 20-22, 2019 in Oceanside, N.Y. Opening night is Friday, Sept. 20, at 6:30 pm, Wrights Field, 264 Mott St., Oceanside. The tournament was created by Jeremy Feder, a student from the Oceanside School District. Jeremy is a catcher who wanted to combine his passion for baseball with a desire to help our nation's injured veterans and first responders. In total, America’s VetDogs has received more than $18,000 from this fundraiser. Over 200 people attended opening night from the community in the past. Middle school and high school students who volunteer at opening night and throughout the weekend receive community service credits. Proceeds from tournament fees ($500/team), snack/raffle sales, and private and corporate donations will go to America's VetDogs. The event is hosted by Jeremy and Oceanside Little League.

A variety of corporate sponsorship opportunities to suit every budget is available. Contact Jeremy at jfcatcher2021@gmail.com for more information. So, come on down, buy amazing raffles and delicious snacks on opening night, cheer on the kids, and do some good for our nation's veterans!

About America’s VetDogs®


America’s VetDogs® is dedicated to providing service dogs, FREE of charge, to servicemen and women who have sacrificed so much for this country. Since 2006, hundreds of assistance dogs have been trained and placed as guide and service dogs with disabled veterans of all eras. America’s VetDogs provides guide dogs with individuals who are blind or have low vision; hearing dogs for people who have lost their hearing later in life, service dogs for those with other physical disabilities, facility dogs that work with physical and occupational therapists as part of the rehabilitation process in military and VA hospitals, and PTSD service dogs to help mitigate the effects of PTSD in an effort to provide the emotional and physical support needed.

In 2013, America’s VetDogs became the second assistance dog organization in the United States to be certified by the International Guide Dog Federation and Assistance Dogs International – the Guide Dog Foundation was the first.

The cost to breed, raise, train, and place one assistance dog is over $50,000.  America’s VetDogs relies on contributions from generous individuals, corporations, service clubs and foundations. To learn more about America’s VetDogs and its services and programs, visit www.VetDogs.org

Information about the Puppy Sponsorship Opportunity


Puppy sponsors have the opportunity to name a puppy that will be raised by a puppy raiser family. A puppy sponsor receives a photo and certificate of the puppy once it’s been assigned a name. The sponsor receives periodic updates on how the puppy is progressing in the program and will be invited to "Celebration Sunday" should the dog be scheduled to graduate from the program. This contribution is $6,000 and helps to cover a portion of the costs associated with breeding, puppy raising, and veterinary care. A dog sponsor will be listed in our annual report. We cannot offer a replacement for any puppies that are “career changed” out of the program. Medical and/or behavioral issues can prevent a dog from graduating on class.
