5:16Now PlayingFor 17 years, the New York Yankees have dedicated a week to giving back through their "Hope Week" initiative. This year, the team surprised Jatee Kearsley, the owner and pastry chef of Je T’aime Patisserie in Brooklyn. After putting herself through culinary school, Kearsley opened her Bed-Stuy bakery to support underserved communities—even accepting food stamps to keep her goods accessible. Now, the Yankees are boosting her dream with a $20,000 check and exclusive mentorship from their hospitality staff. TODAY’s Laura Jarrett shares her story.
