Starting with Egypt, where thousands of young people have begun playing under its auspices since 2017, the organization is building bridges of understanding with the Middle East across families, communities, and cultures - building connectivity across society. 

Back on this side of the Atlantic, Kemp spearheaded Because Baseball’s partnership with the Washinton Nationals to create Major League Baseball’s first ever Arab Heritage Night in 2019, building bridges of understanding through baseball in our own backyard.
