See what happens when a simple game of wiffle ball becomes something much bigger!

SLAMT1D is a nonprofit community dedicated to raising awareness and amplifying the voices of people living with type 1 diabetes. Through sport, storytelling, and community events, we highlight the grit, resilience, and strength it takes to live with T1D.

THE LITTLE FENWAY COMPLEX

In 2022, SLAMT1D purchased the iconic Little Fenway complex to preserve its legacy as a “home away from home” for impactful nonprofits.

Off-season improvements are underway to keep the magic going at the world’s premier WIFFLE ball venue.
