As part of Major League Baseball’s community testing program, the Orioles have partnered with the league and the Baltimore Community Foundation to provide free coronavirus testing to Elev8 Baltimore educators and staff through January, the team announced Monday.
Since 2009, Elev8 Baltimore has worked with schools in the area to prepare students for further education through out-of-school efforts, school-based health services and resources, and support for families. The COVID-19 testing services will be available beginning this week at the Elev8 Baltimore network for essential staff for Elev8 Baltimore’s 10 Baltimore City community school partners. The initiative has extended the availability to its partner organizations, which include the Black Yield Institute, Cherry Hill Development Corporation, Fund for Educational Excellence, the Greater Washington D.
