Per the website, the foundation’s mission statement is “to create healthier, happier communities by funding initiatives that inspire children to stay active and live well, and by supporting programs that rescue, protect, and care for animals in need.”
Ohtani and his wife, Mamiko, celebrated the birth of their first daughter earlier this year.
