Sports fans out there, this post is for you. Have you seen the latest issue of Philanthropy, published by the Philanthropy Roundtable? The main article in the January-February issue, "Gridiron Giving," describes the charitable efforts of several active and retired NFL players including George Martin (Giants), Herb Lusk (Eagles), Warrick Dunn (Falcons), Ben Roethlisberger (Steelers), and Jason Taylor (Dolphins).
“How about philanthropy in other sports?”
Take a look at the Sports Philanthropy Project’s Sports Foundation Directory where you can find out about the foundations of your favorite teams or athletes.
“How did this directory come about?”
The Sports Philanthropy Project was created by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to assist sports team foundations in supporting ongoing community projects. Learn about how it all began in The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Anthology: To Improve Health and Health Care, Volume XI (chapter 10).
That’s it for today. Have fun exploring these links!
