Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- The Valley's own Major League Baseball sensation was back at home giving back to the community.

Bryce Harper made an appearance at Findlay Toyota Friday evening.

The 2012 National League Rookie of the Year rubbed elbows with some fans before presenting a check to charity.

Findlay declared Friday, Bryce Harper Day, in honor of his appearance.

They also held a raffle to win signed merchandise.

All proceeds from the event benefit the Miracle of Las Vegas, which provides kids with cognitive and physical challenges the chance to play baseball.
