Beyond generating $545 million in economic impact for the state of Florida since 2015, the Orioles have provided more than $3.6 million to local Sarasota organizations through cash donations and in-kind contributions. Over the past 12 years, the team has made it a priority to help combat food insecurity, empower the youth of the community, and provide arts and educational resources for local children. In the face of the global pandemic, the Orioles turned Ed Smith Stadium into a venue where residents in need could receive essential services. To help alleviate local healthcare systems, the Orioles began hosting COVID-19 testing in August of 2021, which administered more than 45,000 tests in its first six months. The team also partnered with All Faiths Food Bank to help distribute more than 360,000 pounds of food to Sarasota County residents.
