Silver Knights Announce “Home Runs for Mental Health” Initiative in Partnership with Harvard Pilgrim Health Care
Nashua, NH — The Nashua Silver Knights are proud to announce the launch of their 2026 “Home Runs for Mental Health” initiative, presented in partnership with Harvard Pilgrim Health Care. This season-long campaign will support Greater Nashua Mental Health through the power of the long ball.
For every home run hit by the Silver Knights during the 2026 season, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care will donate $100 to Greater Nashua Mental Health. The initiative will also extend to one of the premier events of the summer, the Futures Collegiate Baseball League All-Star Game festivities at Holman Stadium.
As part of the All-Star celebration, every home run hit during the Futures League Home Run Derby will also generate a $100 donation. This includes all derby participants, highlighted by special guest and 2013 World Champion Jonny Gomes.
“We’re incredibly excited to partner with Harvard Pilgrim Health Care on an initiative that makes every big moment on the field even more meaningful,” said Silver Knights General Manager Cam Cook. “Each home run is now one of our players making a direct impact in the community outside of wins and losses.”
“As a not-for-profit health and wellness organization, we are committed to whole person health and understand that well-being goes beyond physical health,” said Kate Skouteris, Vice President, Individual and Small Group Markets for Harvard Pilgrim Health Care. “We are proud to support the Silver Knights and Greater Nashua Mental Health to help address the growing needs of individuals and families across our community. It is critical to open the door to important conversations about mental health which can lead to improved health outcomes.”
The “Home Runs for Mental Health” campaign underscores a shared commitment between the Silver Knights and Harvard Pilgrim Health Care to raise awareness and provide critical support for mental health services in Greater Nashua. Funds raised will directly benefit Greater Nashua Mental Health’s programs, which provide vital care and resources for individuals and families across the region.
Fans can celebrate each Silver Knights home run even more this summer knowing every swing has the potential to make a lasting impact beyond the ballpark.
