I’ve been blessed to have the opportunity to live out my dream of becoming an NFL player. The journey wasn’t always easy and I could not have done it on my own. I started The Jabaal Sheard Foundation to provides at-risk youth with provisions and programming within the fields of education, mentorship, and overall wellness. I'm inviting fans and supporters to join my Tackles for Kids campaign, by pledging a donation for every tackle I have this season with my new team, the Indianapolis Colts. As the pledges add up, I'm going to be going at it extra hard knowing that every tackle will help a child.
Since 1893, Boys & Girls Clubs of Indianapolis believes every young person deserves to live a life filled with hope and opportunity. Because we care about our young people, we provide a safe, educational and positive atmosphere where they can prosper and reach their full potential.
