The Los Angeles Dodgers won the 2020 ESPN Sports Humanitarian Team of the Year Award in recognition of work completed through the organization’s official charity, the L.A. Dodgers Foundation. The announcement was made during the broadcast of the annual ESPYS.

The LADF was recognized for tackling the most pressing problems facing Los Angeles with a mission to improve education, health care, homelessness, and social justice for all Angelenos. The Dodgers organization earned a $100,000 award, which the foundation will use to fund proven programs that help level the playing field and invest in on the ground solutions.

“Our goal is to achieve the same level of excellence off the field that our fans demand from us on the field,” Dodger owner and LADF chairman Mark Walter said.
