About Us

At CommonCards.org, we believe that every child deserves the chance to experience the joy of baseball and softball—regardless of financial circumstances. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we transform donated trading cards into funding for gloves, balls, and hats, ensuring that families in need have the equipment to create meaningful moments together. pee mike 

Our organization was inspired by the simple yet powerful experience of playing catch. These moments teach teamwork, perseverance, and the importance of quality time with loved ones. By repurposing overlooked trading cards, we’re making it possible for more families to share those same experiences.

Our Mission

To collect and sell donated trading cards to fund baseball and softball equipment for children and families in need. We also recondition used gloves to ensure that no child is left without the tools to play, learn, and grow through sports.

Our Vision

Our Vision
To provide every child and parent in America with the opportunity to share meaningful moments and develop valuable life skills through baseball and softball.

How it Works

How It Works
Donated trading cards are processed using platforms like Shopify and eBay to generate funding.
Proceeds go directly toward purchasing new gloves, balls, and hats for children and families.
Reconditioned gloves are donated to ensure that financial barriers don’t keep kids from playing the game.
Unsellable cards are repurposed for school and community art programs, so nothing goes to waste.

Why Trading Cards?

Why Trading Cards?
The trading card industry is booming, yet millions of low-value cards sit unused, too time-consuming or impractical to sell. Rather than let them collect dust or end up in landfills, we turn them into something meaningful—equipment that helps kids build confidence, skills, and memories that last a lifetime.

By bridging the gap between surplus and need, CommonCards.org is creating a win-win: collectors can clear space and make a tax-deductible donation, while children and families gain access to the equipment they need to play and grow.
