Youth of America Week is a coordinated effort of NFL Alumni chapters to participate simultaneously in youth-related community service activities. Youth of America Week began in 1983 when NFL alumnus and Congressman Jack Kemp introduced a resolution that was signed by-then President Ronald Reagan.
“Giving back to children’s charities is a cornerstone of NFL Alumni,” said NFL Alumni Chairman of the Board and former Eagles Quarterback Ron Jaworski. “Getting our retired football players together to provide positive experiences for underprivileged kids is what Youth of America Week is all about.”
NFL Alumni chapters will host a variety of events during Youth of America Week including football clinics, school supply drives, trips to NFL training camps and more.
“Throughout the year, all NFL Alumni chapters host events to support children’s charities,” said Elvis Gooden, interim President & CEO of the NFL Alumni. “We are excited about bringing back Youth of America Week again this year and look to continue our mission of ‘Caring For Kids’ while impacting youth around the country through community involvement.”
Below are a few events that will be hosted by NFL Alumni Chapters around the country.
