Toronto Blue Jays legend Jose Bautista is making an impact at the SickKids hospital in Toronto by starting the 'Bautista Impact Fund'.
With the recent news of George Springer's commitment to children with disabilities, Jose Bautista is back in Toronto as well do charity work we can all be proud of.
In the past, as a player, Bautista has made surprise visits to sick kids at the SickKids Children's Hospital in Toronto to make them feel special, but this time he's doing it to make an impact on all children and the future of the hospital going forward.
Bautista, a dad of four, is known for his unwavering commitment to children and youth.
That's why he's partnered with Canada's #1 publicly-funded children's hospital in a dedicated effort to create meaningful, measurable impact for the next generation.
The Bautista Impact Fund in partnership with SickKids will supply critical support to the hospital in areas where it's needed most.

We can't wait to flip some bats together! Thank you, José! 💙
