NFL cornerback Josh Norman covers cost of respite center needs

McALLEN — When it came to the humanitarian respite center needing a commercial washer and dryer for the immigrant families sheltered at the facility here, the Washington Redskins’ Josh Norman had them covered Thursday.

Sister Norma Pimentel of Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley, which operates the center, was grateful for the donation.

“ Kudos to Josh Norman with the Washington Redskins for visiting the humanitarian respite center/McAllen today and contributing to our response to restore human dignity,” she said via Twitter on Thursday.

Prior to the ceremonial check presentation, Norman toured the facility and spoke to the staff of volunteers in addition to the families being cared for at the center. Norman, who appeared especially concerned for the immigrant children, expressed the need for more people to embrace these families.
