Baseball Hall Receives $250,000 Legacy Grant

The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown has received a $250,000 legacy grant from San Francisco RBI, a Bay Area nonprofit educational organization now winding down its operations. This organization focused its efforts on integrating reading and baseball to raise literacy levels of under-resourced youth in San Francisco. This grant will be used to continue educational outreach from Cooperstown for students within the San Francisco Unified School District; to provide educational experiences and resources for Junior Giants participants throughout the Bay Area; as well as to provide grants for central New York students to visit the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.
