Latinx Heritage Month Spotlight: Roberto Clemente

In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month we’re taking time to remember the legacy and contributions of Puerto Rican professional baseball player Roberto Clemente, who played 18 seasons in Major League Baseball for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Not only was Roberto a baseball legend, he was also was heavily involved in charity work in a number of Latin American and Caribbean countries during his off-seasons. Clemente often spent his free time delivering baseball equipment and food to those in need. His charity work ultimately resulted in his untimely and tragic death.
