(((  Its Great when all athletes, not just peyton   show that they  are true heros by giving back to communities what they can, .......

 

the amount isnt what really matters here as Peyton has more than most to give and gives via other  distribution channels as well   , the cumulative effort by all people in general is what counts ))))

 

Last month, Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning gave $500,000 to the Pat Summitt Foundation for the fight against Alzheimer’s Disease.

 

Today, Manning’s PeyBack Foundation is donating $581,000 that will be distributed to more than 90 youth-based community organizations in Colorado, Indiana, Tennessee and Louisiana for 2013.

 

Add it up and Manning has donated more than $1.081 million in the past two months.

It is really wonderful to see someone as high profile as Peyton Manning give visibility to a senior cause

 

I know that children's causes are very worthy as well but senior issues do not get the visibility they should

 

Alzheimers affects an increasing number of families and I can tell you from personal experience that it takes a massive toll on everyone.

 

Thanks Peyton!

The four places he's lived.....Indiana, Louisana  and Colorado..and a Tennessee icon...

 

 

I think Peyton and Eli must wonder what to do with their money....

 

I dont think Archie needs the cash..and I'm sure they' long since taken care of Cooper...

 

 

I'm always reminded that poor kids who benefit from charity dont care why the rich man gave the money

I would imagine one of the reasons he gave to the Pat Summitt Foundation is because they are close friends from when he went to College in Tenn. Just my thoughts and I'm glad that he does give back in many ways. :) Peyton is one class act in my opinion.  I think a lot of professional players in all sports give back and that is good in my book. :thmup:

    • Can you expend on this, why do you think that?
    • No, but I would love that! Is that true? Where did you hear that? I don't think that will happen. I heard that trading Herbert would result in a huge dead cap hit for the Chargers, that would make it nearly impossible to keep or sign other players.
