Sunshine Kids National Spokesperson
Craig Biggio
Former Houston Astros Second Baseman
For more than a decade, Houston Astros star Craig Biggio has supported the Sunshine Kids Foundation. His unselfish commitment has featured numerous contributions to the foundation, including a pool table for the game room, Jungle Gym and a party deck which is used for activities for the kids at the Sunshine Kids house.
Every year Craig hosts the annual Biggio Party at Astros Field for the Sunshine Kids. This event is the always the highlight of the year and gives the children the opportunity to play baseball with Craig and his Astros teammates.
In addition, Craig hosts an annual golf tournament that benefits the Foundation. The Sunshine Kids Celebrity Golf Classic has served as one of the major fundraisers in the greater Houston area and over the years has raised more than $1 million for the Foundation.
As the National Spokesperson for The Sunshine Kids Foundation, Craig often visits the Sunshine Kids house and is regularly seen by national sports audiences wearing the Sunshine Kids pin on his baseball cap.
“I realized, I am not alone. These other kids have the same problems I do, if not worse. If they can handle it, then I can too.”
