Here is just one recent of a myriad of articles that discuss Jeter's considerable charitable efforts.

Ditto. Just because Jeter doesn't go around bragging about his enormous contributions to his charity (Turn2Foundation) doesn't mean he pockets every penny he earns from commercials and his Steiner Sports contract.
If you don't want to spend $2500.00 to meet and greet Jeter, then don't. Those who can afford to, and want to, pay. It's really that simple.
