One of Mark's most admirable traits is his generosity towards charitable organizations. Mark is one of the rare athletes that fully understands how lucky they are to be paid millions of dollars to play a game they love, and genuinely feels compelled to give back to those in less fortunate situations. He established the Mark Grace Foundation to benefit many worthy charities and also gives of his time and talent to support the charities of other big leaguers. Some of the many charities that have benefited from his generosity include:

Arizona Leukemia Society
The annual Mark Grace Foundation Golf Tournament in Scottsdale, Arizona benefits the Leukemia Society and features special appearances by celebrities and major league players.
