Cincinnati Reds players’ families are giving back to Reds Country through funds raised from the sales of Tiny Turnip branded Reds wear sold in the Reds Team Shop.

This “Shop the Cause” program allows Reds fans to share the love this summer by purchasing unique apparel while raising awareness of youth homelessness.

The Reds Team Shop at Great American Ball Park now features a collection of Reds-branded sportswear and accessories for women and children from Tiny Turnip.

Proceeds from the Shop the Cause program featuring Tiny Turnip apparel will benefit Lighthouse Youth & Family Services.

“The Tiny Turnip apparel not only shows your Reds pride but also positively impacts our community,” said Karen Forgus, Reds Chief Communications & Community Officer. “Each sale directly supports Lighthouse Youth Services in Cincinnati, helping to brighten the futures of local youth in need.”

The families of Reds players and coaches partnered with Tiny Turnip to design the custom apparel.

“Through this unique partnership, the families of Reds players and coaches collaborated with Tiny Turnip to create custom sportswear that embodies the spirit of the team, offering Reds fans a personalized and stylish way to show their support,” said Kristi Bell, wife of Reds manager David Bell.

Available items include women’s T-shirts and jackets, as well as T-shirts and onesies for kids, toddlers, and infants. Reds-branded scrunchies are also available.
