Colin Kaepernick Donates $100K to COVID-19 Relief Efforts: 'We Need Each Other Now More than Ever'
On Thursday, the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback announced on social media that he will give six figures to his Know Your Rights campaign’s COVID-19 response effort. The charitable fund aims to help those disproportionately affected by the pandemic, aiding in areas like food, shelter, education and more.
“We need each other now more than ever,” wrote Kaepernick on Instagram. “I’m donating $100,000 to the Know Your Rights Camp COVID-19 Relief Fund. This Fund was created to raise money and awareness to the disproportionate impact this pandemic is having on Black and Brown communities. Join us in our mission 🖤✊🏾.”
