Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is taking a deep dive into something he's very passionate about and that's helping mentor the youth and keeping Philly schools cool.
NBC Sports' Dave Zangaro announced on Tuesday that Hurts has launched the "Jalen Hurts Foundation which will create “strengthen communities by serving, mentoring, and advancing youth.”
Through the Jalen Hurts Foundation, he has also set up the "Keep it Cool Campaign" that will aim to continue to upgrade air conditioning units in nearly 100 Philadelphia schools.
Hurts' Mission and Reason Why
Here's what the official Jalen Hurts Foundation website has to say about Hurts' overall mission:
"The Jalen Hurts Foundation was founded out of years of service and overwhelming gratitude to the communities that have generously become a home away from home for Jalen. Its mission is to strengthen communities by servicing and advancing the youth. This will be done by providing resources and support programs to create positive role models among our youth. There is an opportunity to encourage and nurture our youth to pursue their passions and it is a privilege to use our platform to do so."
In addition to his mission, the website also shared Hurts' reason why:
"Jalen believes youth across the country possess undiscovered abilities and strengths that have not been utilized. He personally has benefited from the light of encouragement and wants to provide that to others. He intends to impact in ways that inspire, educate, and advance the youth. Jalen’s values have been developed from the influence of various communities, readings, and ultimately life lessons. He takes extreme pride and joy in being able to step outside of himself and support uplifting avenues for our youth’s future."
As for the Keep it Cool Campaign, Hurts has already helped 10 schools so far by donating $200,000 toward air conditioning units.
This is just one of many generous donations Hurts has given out since he entered the NFL in 2020 as he is always looking for ways to help the kids.
