The mission of the Mordecai Brown Legacy Foundation is to perpetuate the ideals and life values of Mordecai “Three Finger” Brown. We do this by seeking to meet service needs within baseball and sporting activities by finding long-term solutions for preserving baseball and sports history, celebrating the game, and sharing the dreams of personal accomplishments.

The purpose of the Mordecai Brown Legacy Foundation is to be a national and international model for community engagement, generating volunteer opportunities and financial contributions to insure preservation and perpetuation of “Our Grand Old Game.”

Baseball is a community and a culture, on the amateur level as well as the professional. The game is where people can build bonds of friendship while striving for individual and team goals. On the field many will develop life values. The Mordecai Brown Legacy Foundation (MBLF) seeks to incorporate Brown’s message into a support network for players, fans, and communities.

MBLF embodies the words spoken by Mordecai Brown to an audience of young ballplayers: “I would like to meet every one of you personally if such a thing were possible. But as it isn’t possible, I want you to believe right now that Mordecai Brown’s hand is reaching out to you in the distance and wishing you – good luck boys, good luck.”
