We realize that fundraising events are an integral activity for charitable organizations. Many non-profit agencies seek in-kind support from the White Sox in the form of autographed memorabilia, photographs and game tickets for these events. During a typical year, the White Sox donate several hundred thousand dollars in in-kind support to assist thousands of community organizations in reaching their fundraising goals. By supporting charitable causes, the White Sox exercise our continued pledge to be an active member in the community, as well as make meaningful differences in people’s lives. If making a request, we kindly ask that you follow these guidelines:
Donation Requests
The White Sox will consider requests for charitable organizations in Illinois and the Greater Chicagoland area, including Northwest Indiana. Please mail or fax donation requests on organizational letterhead at least four (4) weeks prior to the event. The request must include:
- Event date and location
- Purpose for the request
- Complete contact information including mailing address and telephone number
Donations address:

Fax: 312-674-5119
*All donated items will be mailed approximately two weeks prior to the event.
Due to the volume of requests we receive, the White Sox must limit donations to once per calendar year. Since demand for items is so great, there is no way we can respond favorably to each request, much as we would like to do so.
