Description
The National Football League Foundation’s Club Community Grants give each of the 32 NFL clubs opportunities to support their communities and activate national cause campaigns in local markets. Funding supports club-led projects, programs, and nonprofit partnerships, with priorities spanning social justice, youth health and fitness, youth football, cancer awareness and screening, military support, and social responsibility.
