Aspiration founder Joseph Sanberg has been sentenced to 14 years in prison for defrauding investors for $248 million, per @Baxter. He and the Clippers are being investigated by the NBA for paying Kawhi under the table.
Jason Brown reached the pinnacle of professional football when he signed a five-year, $37.5 million contract with the St.
Louis Rams in 2009, becoming the highest-paid center in the NFL at the time.
After spending several seasons in the league and earning millions, Brown made a life-changing decision.
Rather than continue pursuing more NFL contracts, he stepped away from professional football and followed a different calling.
He purchased land in Louisburg, North Carolina, and founded First Fruits Farm, a 1,000-acre farm dedicated to helping those in need.
Despite having no prior farming experience, Brown taught himself how to farm and turned the property into a source of food for struggling families.
Through First Fruits Farm, Brown has donated hundreds of thousands of pounds of sweet potatoes, tens of thousands of pounds of cucumbers, and a wide variety of other fresh produce to food banks and food pantries.
Over the years, the farm has provided more than 1.5 million pounds of food to people facing hunger.
