| The Jorge Posada Foundation is a
non-profit organization established by the New York Yankees’ All-Star Catcher,
Jorge Posada, and his wife, Laura. Their son, Jorge Jr., was diagnosed with
Craniosynostosis when he was just ten days old and had to undergo five major
surgeries to correct the condition. |

| |
Through the Foundation, the Posada Family is able to:
reach out to those families in need, whose children are affected by Craniosynostosis,
and provide them with emotional support through its family support network; provide financial
assistance to underwrite a portion of the costs of initial surgeries in its partner medical
centers; and encourage further research of this medical condition. The Foundation also
strives to create awareness through events and through funding other educational outreach efforts. |
