**About Cardinals Care**

Cards 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, Cards Care has invested over $31 million to support
St. Louis area children, built or renovated 25 youth ball fields in local under-
resourced neighborhoods, and distributed over $17 million in grants to nonprofit
organizations.  

Since 2004, Cards 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, Cards 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. To learn more 
about all of Cards Care’s programs visit [cardinals.com/community](http://cardinals.com/community)
and follow @CardinalsCare on X, Facebook and Instagram.
