Christmas is a time for giving and Texas Rangers Major League Baseball pitcher Cole Hamels and his wife Heidi have taken that adage to heart
Christmas is a time for giving and Texas Rangers Major League Baseball pitcher Cole Hamels and his wife Heidi have taken that adage to heart.
The couple has donated their $10 million Missouri mansion to a children’s charity.
The Table Rock Lake property was listed for sale back in August but the kindhearted Hamels have instead gifted it to local non-profit Camp Barnabas.
“There are tons of amazing charities in Southwest Missouri. Out of all of these, Barnabas really pulled on our heartstrings,” says Cole Hamels. “Seeing the faces, hearing the laughter, reading the stories of the kids they serve; there is truly nothing like it. Barnabas makes dreams come true, and we felt called to help them in a big way.”
The 32,000-square foot home with more than 100 acres of land, is the largest ever donation to the charity which offers camping experiences to kids with special needs and their siblings.
“This is so much more than a beautiful property.” says Krystal Simon, Chief Development Officer. “This incredible gift allows us to further our ministry and truly change thousands of lives for years to come.”
