New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees made waves this week by announcing his donation of $5 million towards coronavirus relief in Louisiana, partnering with restaurants for free meal deliveries to needy families while also pledging funds to local hospitals.
Brees made several media appearances in the wake of this announcement, joining noted Saints fan Robyn Roberts on ABC’s “Good Morning America” program. He also spoke with the TODAY Show’s Hoda Kotb, who was moved to tears when discussing Brees’ big gesture.
It goes to show the impact of what Brees is doing to help his community. He also appeared in a public service announcement from the NFL along with several of his Saints teammates and coach Sean Payton, advocating for the need to stay home and avoid spreading coronavirus infections. Here’s hoping others follow their lead.
