Buy wristbands to benefit Derek Jeter's Turn 2 Foundation

To commemorate his upcoming milestone, Derek Jeter will wear "DJ3K" wristbands, which he designed with Major League Baseball and the Yankees. The bands feature the Turn 2 Foundation and Yankees logos and are available for purchase at the MLB.com Shop, retail outlets and Yankee Stadium. Proceeds from sales of the bands will benefit Turn 2's 2011 Jeter's Leaders Leadership Conference in July. The conference brings together Jeter's Leaders from New York City and West Michigan to present eight workshops to other youth leadership programs.
