Denver Broncos defensive end Derek Wolfe and JP Capital Management president/CEO Jamin Pastore returned to their high school alma mater this week to donate $1 million toward the school district’s athletic facilities and football stadium.
Wolfe and Pastore both played football at Beaver Local High School.
“These two Beaver Local alumni have become like brothers through the years, a brotherhood that began on the football field,” Beaver Local Schools superintendent Eric Lowe said in a statement, via DenverBroncos.com. “Jamin was returning from Duke University during the summer to help with youth football speed camps when he met Derek.
“The two have bonded over their love of football and our local community. They look forward to giving back to the athletic program that served as such a positive influence in their lives.”
If Wolfe and Pastore each donated $500,000, that would represent 6.25% percent of Wolfe’s $8 million base salary for the 2019 season. Wolfe is about to become a free agent in March — he would like to re-sign with the Broncos and finish his career in Denver.
