Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities (RBI)

RBI is a registered nonprofit organization dedicated to providing disadvantaged youth an opportunity to learn and enjoy the game of baseball. Since 1989, more than one million children have participated in MLB RBI programs and annually more than 200,000 boys and girls play in an RBI league.

RBI Austin was established in 2009 with the mission to engage and develop inner-city Austin youth athletically, academically, and spiritually, ultimately empowering them to lead the transformation of their communities.

In 2015, RBI Austin served more than 680 kids from disadvantaged communities. This year, The Law Offices of Foster & Houston supported RBI Austin to make baseball both affordable and accessible for inner-city Austin youth.
