Every April for the past 20 years, Alex Bregman has been on a baseball field. Like most others in the country, COVID-19 cleared everyone’s calendar in 2020.Instead of hitting line drives at Minute Maid Park, the Astros star third basemen is doing what he can to help the community as it tries to prevent the spread of coronavirus.On April 10, Bregman launched FEEDHOU, a $1 million campaign to help feed Houstonians impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. Proceeds from the campaign directly benefit the Houston Food Bank.“While the Astros are off the field, I want to create a new team to help Houston’s hungry,” Bregman said while volunteering at the Houston Food Bank on April 10.“Houston is my home, and right now my home is in need. By partnering with a great organization such as the Houston Food Bank, we can all do our part to ensure Houston’s underserved children and families continue to get the support they need during these difficult times.”Bregman, along with Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale, are each committing $100,000 for the cause. Additional donations can be made by texting “FEEDHOU” to the number 41444 or online at https://bit.ly/2y1eB96 “I am asking everyone to consider being a member of this army of donors,” Bregman said. “Together, we can show the world the sense of community and resiliency that has come to define just who we are as a city.In March, Bregman donated 1,000 quarantine food kits to the Houston Food Bank, which will provide students with meals to make up for schools being shut down. Each kit provides 28 free lunches per student.Bregman also joined forces with teammate Carlos Corea to film a public service announcement, helping a younger generation understand the seriousness of the virus.“Everyone should take this seriously, especially people our age," Bregman said. “Young people – it may not affect you, but it can affect those you love and care about and people we love and care about.”The Jewish star is not the only Astros player helping out.George Springer donated $100,000 to employees at Minute Maid Park, who are losing income as a result of the start of baseball season being delayed. Opening Day was originally scheduled for March 26, but – like all major sports – has been put on hold until further notice.Astros star pitcher Justin Verlander and his wife, Kate Upton, announced he will be donating his paycheck each week until the season starts to a different charity to help with coronavirus relief.“Obviously, this is an extremely difficult time for the entire world,” Verlander said. “There’s so many people that are in need, whether it’s those in the front lines battling this disease head on or someone who’s at home and has lost their job and needs to provide basic necessities.”Jose Altuve, and his wife Nina, teamed with the Astros Foundation to donate 60,000 meals to Kids’ Meals, Inc.Correa and Lance McCullers Jr., have each donated money to fund hospital supplies and catered lunches for nurses and medical staff at Houston Methodist Hospital.“You guys are the real heroes working every single day in the front lines to help the victims of this terrible virus,” Correa wrote on social media. “We appreciate every one of you.”Reliever Joe Smith and his wife, Allie LaForce, organized to have hundreds of meals delivered to hospitals in Houston.The Astros Foundation, with assistance from Crane Worldwide, delivered personal protection equipment and other medical supplies to hospitals within the Texas Medical Center.
