NBA All‑Star Jayson Tatum mobilized the Jayson Tatum Foundation to support residents affected by mid‑May tornado damage in St. Louis, organizing a food drive on June 1 that collected over 52,000 pounds of supplies, with a second drive held on June 14 at his high school alma mater to continue delivering aid and hope to the community.
NFL quarterback Russell Wilson, now with the New York Giants, through his Why Not You Foundation in partnership with the Colossal Foundation, announced this week the “Youth Athlete of the Year” competition—featuring a $25,000 cash prize and a Sports Illustrated feature—designed to recognize and empower young athletes across America.
