JACLYN DIPATERIO
FOUNDER IGNITE INSPIRE MANAGEMENT & PLAYERS WITH A PURPOSE
Jaclyn’s son, Brayden was diagnosed in 2023 with Autism and other developmental disorders. Brayden was given a one on one experience to throw a baseball with the MLB in a private setting suited for his particular unique needs, creating a passion for the game. Jaclyn installed turf at home to prevent community elopements and provided her son equipment suited for his social & developmental delays.
Funding for special needs opportunities while offering a more impactful way to gain support has become our mission. With long term experience as a progect manager for non profits and professional sports events, Jaclyn created Players With A Purpose Inc. to offer similar opportunities to more families in need.


UPCOMING EVENTS
We are proud to host our athlete-family pairings and clinics with the support of athletes and organizations from the MLB, NHL, PGA, UFC, and other supportive like-minded partnership's all year round. Each family will receive a sponsorship giving them the ability to attend these intimate events and personalized connections. Families will also be provided equipment to continue the commitment to the sport at home, and funding to use accordingly for the on going passion of the sport. Children in the autism community will also receive constant support between their clinics with a professional lineup of athletes or athlete alumni provided by Players With A Purpose.
