HANSCOM AFB, Mass.––Josephine Schiavone and her 19 guests enjoyed a Red Sox game this week from a luxury box at Fenway Park. Josephine was the lucky winner of the Hanscom FCU Charitable Foundation’s “See the Sox from the Box” raffle to benefit the Red Sox Foundation and Mass General Hospital Home Base program.
“It was a fun afternoon,” said host and Foundation board secretary Paul Marotta. “We had a suite full of vim and vigor throughout the game.”
The raffle prize included food, beverages, and three VIP parking spaces. A Red Sox win, unfortunately, was not part of the prize package. Instead, the group celebrated the home team’s American League East title, clinched the night before.
All proceeds from this year’s raffle benefit the Home Base program. The program is dedicated to healing the invisible wounds of war for service members, veterans and their families through clinical care, fitness and mind-body wellness programs.
