Prior to the Cardinals-Dodgers game on Friday, Sept. 14, Dodgers right fielder Andre Ethier, on behalf of Mercury Insurance, presented a $5,000 check to the Union Rescue Mission (URM).

Mercury, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, began its relationship with Ethier in July when partnering to produce a “Don’t Text and Don’t Drive” PSA.

Ethier presented the check alongside Erik Thompson, advertising and communications director for Mercury, to five representatives from the Mission, which is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving homeless men, women and children. Established in 1891, URM is one of the largest rescue missions in the United States and the oldest in Los Angeles.
