**ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 15, 2024 – **The St. Louis Cardinals and Cardinals Care, 
the team’s community foundation, today announced the launch of the **_Feed the Future_**
campaign in partnership with Chip Caray and Bank of America.  For every double play
the Cardinals turn for the remainder of the 2024 season, Bank of America will donate
to Cardinals Care, who in turn will make a matching donation that will be distributed
to Operation Food Search to help Feed the Future, ensuring children 18 years and
younger receive the nutrition they need to grow and thrive.

“Double play calls will be extra special for me the rest of this season because 
for every one the Cardinals turn, a donation will be made to help feed youth in 
our community,” said Chip Caray, Cardinals play-by-play announcer. “It is an honor
to lend my voice to this important initiative.”

“We are thrilled to be a part of this unique double play program, along with Cardinals
Care, Chip Caray and Operation Food Search, to generate funds needed to help remove
barriers to access nutritious food, a critical component to the success of youth
in our community. Partnerships like these are an important part of Bank of America’s
commitment to St. Louis,” said Katie Fischer, market executive, Bank of America 
St. Louis.

 “We are truly grateful to Chip Caray, Bank of America and Cardinals Care for this
exciting and impactful campaign,” said Kristen Wild, president and CEO of Operation
Food Search. “Feed the Future puts the focus on kids at a time when the child poverty
rate has more than doubled. Together, we are working to fight hunger, nourish lives
and foster hope in our community.”

Fans are invited to join Chip in his efforts and donate at [cardinals.com/feedthefuture](http://www.cardinals.com/feedthefuture).
A donation of just five dollars will help provide a summer meal for a child or, 
during the school year, an afterschool or weekend meal. Each meal provided is nutritionally
balanced to help the child thrive.

**ABOUT OPERATION FOOD SEARCH**

Founded in 1981, Operation Food Search is a hunger relief organization that provides
food, nutrition education and innovative programs in order to reduce food insecurity
and increase equitable access to food. OSF serves 200,000 people every month through
a network of 330 partners in 25 counties in Missouri and Illinois. They use a combination
of immediate food assistance and supportive services, while also working on long-
term solutions and systemic changes to help solve the problem of hunger.

**ABOUT CARDINALS CARE**

Cardinals Care was established to give fans a way to team up with Cardinals players
and the organization to help children in our community—both on and off the baseball
field. Established in 1997, Cardinals Care has invested over $31 million to support
St. Louis area children, built or renovated 24 youth ball fields in local under-
resourced neighborhoods, and distributed over $17 million in grants to nonprofit
organizations.

Since 2004, Cardinals Care has orchestrated the innovative Redbird Rookies program,
a free co-ed baseball/softball league for kids who otherwise might not have the 
opportunity to play. In addition to providing all the uniforms and equipment needed
for each team, Redbird Rookies also provides extensive off-field support in the 
areas of health, education, mentoring and the cultural arts for each of the nearly
2,500 kids who participate in the program each year. In 2023, Cardinals Care launched
the Cardinals Nike Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities (RBI) program in cooperation
with Major League Baseball to provide greater baseball and softball opportunities
for youth ages 14-18 in our community.
