Travis Scott & his Cactus Jack Foundation, in conjunction with Project H.E.A.L., will host the Cactus Jack Foundation HBCU Celebrity Softball Classic on Thursday, February 15th at Minute Maid Park, home of the 2022 World Series Champion Houston Astros. The Celebrity Softball Classic will feature an all-star lineup of baseball Hall of Fam ers and A-list entertainers who will participate in a Home Run Derby and Softball Game. The event will also include exclusive Cactus Jack merch, giveaways, prizes, raffles, and a silent auction table with one-of-a-kind music and sports memorabilia. This event supports Scott’s longstanding commitment to providing scholarship opportunities for students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). It is a cause that is important to Scott given his family’s longtime legacy studying, working at and supporting HBCUs. Ticket proceeds will benefit the Waymon Webster Scholarship Fund, which provides financial support to HBCU seniors for final tuition fees and allows those students to graduate and receive their college diploma on-time.
