Loved the Sports Philanthropy Network field trip yesterday to the Intentional Sports facility in the Austin neighborhood in Chicago. Amazing facility with outdoor mini-pitches for soccer, indoor facilities for basketball, soccer and more. Serving thousands of kids every week. This $40 million facility has helped transform the area and dramatically reduce the gun violence.

Thank you to Austin Carr and the whole staff for agreeing to host the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Business students that are interested in a career in sports. They had a tremendous opportunity to spend 2.5 days visiting different types of sports organizations to get a feel for the significant number of jobs in the industry.

Was pleased to see terrific engagement from the students and especially the great questions they had about creating impact and sports philanthropy!

And of course love the Badger swag. Can never have too much of that!

Super Bowl week is one of the most energizing and exhausting weeks... simultaneously.

We're fortunate to get great support and be credentialed by the NFL each year to cover the community and philanthropic activations around the host city.

From Radio Row we capture the stories of the athletes and sports organizations making an impact in their community.

Last year we did over 70 interviews from Radio Row and this year we are already ovee 60 scheduled and the week has not even begun.

Super Bowl week has increasingly become a sports business/tech/finance/venture playground with an array of summits, conferences, parties and other events.

Even if you don't try to go to the game, there is plenty to do.

We have compiled an extensive list here if you want to know where to find us during the week.

https://t.co/zH3IOH5ICc

Hope to see you soon.

There are many great causes and charity events. Please remember to LIVE GENEROUSLY! .

Amazing to see

[Michael Niziolek @michaelniziolek]

Fernando Mendoza organized a shopping spree for four families impacted by MS through his partnership w/adidas, families get $10,000 each, money left over will be put on gift cards.

The president of the MS Society Tim Coetzee called Mendoza’s advocacy “incredible impactful.”

[NIL4Good @NIL4Good]

Terrific

[Anthony Calhoun 📺 @ACwishtv]

Good morning from NYC!

We are with #IU star quarterback Fernando Mendoza. His mother Elsa has been battling Multiple Sclerosis and he’s here teaming up with @adidas to provide shopping spree for four families that are impacted by MS.

Fernando has already raised 65k for MS. 🙏🏾

So had to start this account bc @X suspended my main @RoyKessel account after it was hacked even though I followed their protocol for reinstatement.

So follow here until I get it resolved or let me know if you have a live person that can help. Thx!

Watch the flood of lawsuits

[Eben Novy-Williams @novy_williams]

BREAKING: The @usedgov just ruled that student NIL payments--regardless of their source (!) -- must be Title IX complaint.

A massive onus on schools to somehow balance what's currently a very opaque market.

@DanielLibit has details 👇

2024 has been a terrific year for Sports Philanthropy Network.

We had amazing activations and engagement at the Super Bowl in Las Vegas and by partnering with Leigh Steinberg for a Sports Philanthropy Pavilion for his Super Bowl party. If you would like to get involved for either of those opportunities this year, please let us know.

Kayla put together a fantastic presentation about our NIL4Good program to train the Intl Assn of Comm in Sports.

Big Ten Conf continues to be a great partner as we cover and highlight their community and philanthropic activations at media days, Conference Championship Football Games and conference basketball tournaments.

The NFL grants terrific access through Radio Row at the Super Bowl, the Pro Bowl, NFL Honors, Combine, Owners Meetings and Draft. The NFL has incredible philanthropic initiatives and partnerships and we are thankful to be included.

SANIL and Jason Belzer incl us in NIL Summit at the College Football Hall of Fame. We trained college athlete leaders on our NIL4Good program. which teaches them how to effectively use their NIL rights to make a difference to the causes and communities in their lives.

MLB Players Trust has joined forces w us and we were excited to have them as part of Sports Philanthropy World and to be part of their upcoming Gala in Scottsdale in Feb.

We were invited to Europe to give a keynote speech on Corporate Social Responsibility in the beautiful city of Bratislava, Slovakia.

KPMG became an amazing host for our Sports Philanthropy World 2024 Conference. You can check out the lineup of sponsors, speakers and events here! https://t.co/83ploDGxqk

We are thankful to numerous, numerous other companies, individuals, athl, teams, leagues and funders who have contributed to allow us to increase our impact every year! We love the coaches who put so much into their sports. We love the retired athl who gave everything to their sport. And we love the current athl who are throwing their entire life into their sport.

We are excited about new partnerships that will be announced in 2025 that will focus on:

**Scholarships for HBCU students to attend sports conferences.

**Increasing vaccination rates in underserved communities.

**Scholarships for students to attend our Sports Philanthropy World Conference.

**More opportunities for student-athletes and other students to access our resilience training programs.

**New task forces that are ready to launch for disabilities, mental health, LGBTQIA+, financial literacy, STEM education, Literacy, Concussions, Wellness and more.

**Initiatives focused on reducing gun violence.

**Partnering with local communities hosting youth sports tournaments to create philanthropic education and activation on-site to foster the culture of philanthropy from an early age.

In 2024 we welcomed a great roster of VC Funds, Venture Philanthropy Funds, Family Offices, Team Foundations, Ownership Groups and Corporate Foundations to the table.

We are thankful for so many incredible organizations and allies we have not mentioned. Our growth is a function of their support and the work of our Chapter Directors, our Ambassadors, our sponsors, our speakers, our podcast guests and more. We thank each and every one of you!

We would love to have you as part of our Sports Philanthropy Network community. We hope that you will consider donating to support our efforts for 2025.

https://t.co/32CUHlupUj

If you would like to get involved, please reach out and let us know!

If you are going to be at any coaching conventions, sports business conferences, trade shows or major sporting events in the First Quarter of the year, please let us know so that we can make time to get together in person. We love the opportunity to spend time, in person, with the people who are changing lives and transforming communities!

Wishing you all a Happy, Healthy and Peaceful 2025.

Please remember to LIVE GENEROUSLY!

Thank you!

Roy and Kayla
