Boston, MA — In a powerful display of humility and compassion, Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora has stunned fans and the baseball world by announcing that he will donate his entire $6.8 million performance bonus and sponsorship earnings to charities and homeless support organizations throughout New England and beyond.

Cora made the heartfelt announcement during a press conference at Fenway Park earlier today, citing a deep personal connection to the causes and a desire to give back to the community that has supported him for years.

“This city, this team, and this game have given me so much. It’s only right to give something meaningful in return,” Cora said. “Too many people are struggling just to survive. If I can help change that—even a little—I have a responsibility to do so.”

The donation will be allocated to a network of organizations, including:

• Boston Health Care for the Homeless

• The Greater Boston Food Bank

• Horizons for Homeless Children

• Feeding America

• Youth outreach and education programs across Massachusetts

Fans quickly flooded social media with messages of support and admiration for the beloved manager, calling his actions “incredible,” “moving,” and “a reminder of what leadership really looks like.”

“Alex Cora didn’t just make a statement—he made a difference,” one Red Sox supporter wrote on Instagram.

Already known for his passion both on and off the field, this generous act has only further cemented Alex Cora’s legacy—not just as a champion, but as a man of the people.

Boston doesn’t just have a great manager—it has a great human being.
