WHAT IT MEANS

The Motte Foundation was founded by MLB pitcher Jason Motte and his wife Caitlin after asking The West Cancer Clinic what they could do to help the fight against cancer. Their mission is to provide comfort and care where there is a need for those affected, either directly or indirectly, by cancers of all kinds.

After being connected by Ken Rosenthal, BowTie Cause reached out the Jason Motte Foundation inviting them to participate in this unique way to spread awareness of their mission to "KCancer."

"KCancer" is The Jason Motte Foundation's motto and our KCancer shirts are in every major-league clubhouse, in every team's colors, affiliated with a player who has been touched by cancer.

All 30 MLB teams have a player who represents The Motte Foundation, as well as another cancer organization that they work with. $10 from every "KCancer" shirt sold goes to charity; with $5 going to the charity the player is affiliated with, and $5 going to The Jason Motte Foundation.
