Your Chance To Meet Aaron Judge And Make A Kid’s Day

Want to meet Aaron Judge? How about watching a Yankees game with a member of the Steinbrenner family? Own a piece of the Yankees’ captain’s history? Now you can bid on all of it, and help kids while you’re at it.

The Aaron Judge ALL RISE Foundation is launching its 2nd Annual “9/9 for 99” virtual auction, opening Wednesday, Sept. 3, 2025, and closing Monday, Sept. 9. The lineup is very Yankees: Stadium experiences, a meet-and-greet with Judge, a YES Network studio tour, vacation getaways, and plenty of ALL RISE swag.

Proceeds fuel the Foundation’s core mission, which is inspiring kids to become responsible citizens by giving them real opportunities to lead. The money raised goes directly into Mini-Grants for youth projects, scholarships for high school seniors, and leadership development programs that put students in environments where they can grow.

Since 2018, ALL RISE reports that it has invested $87,000 in its Aspiring Leaders initiative, awarded $109,500 in Mini-Grants, hosted 1,205 kids at baseball camps, and covered registration costs for educators, students, and parents to attend Leadership Master Class webinars. One past Mini-Grant recipient, the ACTS Foundation, says ALL RISE support paid for weekly meals, classroom space, and even sent two students to summer camp.

So yes, you can chase a once-in-a-lifetime Judge moment, a YES behind-the-scenes tour, or a Bronx baseball pilgrimage. 

But the win here is bigger than whatever ends up on your wall. 

It’s about putting real fuel behind programs that give kids a chance to lead — and backing an idea that started with a mom, a mentor, and a number Yankees fans already know by heart.
