WE#21’s Mission
To
adopt Roberto Clemente Walker’s (RCW) personal attributes by witnessing and
emulating the values-practices that led him to the heights of
self-actualization.
WE#21's On The Field Program
WE#21 players
become Friends & Teammates (F&T) by being Reliable, Loyal & Generous
like Manny Sanguillen #35 & Roberto Clemente #21 who were Pittsburgh Pirate teammates from 1967-1972.
Players wear shirt numbers from the 1971 World Series Champion Pirate roster. Before
the end of a season, players demonstrate/recite F&T attributes and perform
community service. Youths who do so,
earn a Pirate game tickets, and attend WE#21 events such as Roberto’s birthday celebration on/near August 18. Players who become F&T may enroll in
WE#21’s Life Lessons Program, which guides/demonstrates Roberto’s 21 Points of Light through his
values, acts, deeds and achievements. Members celebrate the anniversary of Roberto's first MLB game appearance on/near April 17.
