Not the money, because not everyone can give so generously. But the giving a crap about other people besides yourself. There's a real shortage of that in this country. Thanks for being such a solid dude. The world needs more of this. Not the money, because not everyone can give so generously. But the giving a crap about other people besides yourself.

J J Watt s previous acts of kindness

Capital One's The Match VI - Brady & Rodgers v Allen & Mahomes J.J. Watt is one of the greatest players of his generation, but on top of that he is also one of the most beloved and respected. His nine-year stint with the Houston Texans brought him three DPOY awards, along with five All-Pro nominations. He is remembered as one of the best to ever pull on a Texans jersey. But despite his achievements, it is perhaps his off-field efforts that define him, and explain why he is a hero in Houston. In 2017, Houston was hit by Hurricane Harvey. There was devastating flooding which resulted in over 100 deaths and left thousands homeless. An estimated £125 billion worth of damage was left in its wake. Watt, through his Justin J. Watt Foundation, raised over $41 million to help the victims. The foundation states that this is the largest ever crowd funding initiative. The foundation has also raised over $1 million for after-school sporting activities. Donations have been made to projects in Texas, Wisconsin, Alabama, Illinois, and California. J.J. Watt covered the funeral costs for ten victims of the Santa Fe High School shooting and for those killed in the Waukesha parade attack. In 2017, the future Hall of Famer was named Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year, for his fundraising and acts of genorosity. If you use any of the above quotes, please H/T Sportskeeda.
