Andre Ethier’s name will grace Union Rescue Mission learning center.

A spokesperson for the Union Rescue Mission said that the facility’s learning center will be renamed for Dodgers outfielder Andre Ethier and his wife Maggie.

In December, we reported that Ethier made a $75,000 donation to the URM, where he’s been a regular off-season volunteer. At the time, he was given the choice of having his name painted (in various forms) on the wall of the fourth-floor learning center. His choice: “The Andre and Maggie Ethier Learning Center.”
