Community Outreach
Hayward, CA Police Department
The City of Hayward's Junior Giants Baseball program is a great example of Hayward’s strong sense of community. Police officers, professional counselors, city officials, community volunteers, and the San Francisco Giants Community Fund come together to provide the children of Hayward a safe, fun, and healthy summer activity. Within the Junior Giants Program, police officers interact as mentors with children and these children are encouraged and rewarded for summer reading, healthy eating, showing integrity and being a good teammate. They learn fundamental baseball skills while learning fundamental life skills, ultimately strengthening the Hayward community.
