Ticha Foundation

A LEGACY OF GIVING BACK

At Rutto Bats our commitment to craftsmanship is matched by our desire to give back to the communities that shaped us. While Rutto Bats crafts premium bats, our Non-Profit 501 (c)(3), Ticha Foundation is focused on crafting opportunities. From the fields of Kenya to the ballparks of America, we believe in giving young people the resources they need to succeed both on and off the field. Ticha is dedicated to empowering youth and strengthening communities through education, and sports.

Ticha Baseball

With momentum and enthusiasm, we are actively working toward our goal of building a strong, sustainable baseball program that empowers young people both on and off the field. In December 2022, we introduced baseball in Kericho County, Kenya, for the very first time. Over 300 youth participated, learning the fundamentals of the game, practicing body mechanics, and having a blast on the field.

Since then, we’ve been building on this exciting start, maintaining a dedicated team that continues to train and practice. While we’ve made significant progress in establishing the foundation for our program, we’re just getting started. Every purchase of a Rutto Bat and/or donation to Ticha, brings us closer to our vision of providing lasting opportunities for youth to grow, thrive, and discover their potential through the sport.

Through Ticha Baseball, we aim to provide youth with:

  • Opportunities to develop their athletic skills in a supportive environment.
  • Life lessons that go beyond the field, promoting mental toughness, teamwork, and a sense of purpose.
  • Exposure to competitive play where they can test their abilities and learn from both success and failure.
