Justin Forsett to Contribute $7,500 and Volunteer in Baton Rouge Flood Relief

Baltimore Ravens running back Justin Forsett will be busy with a non-football project before his team plays the New Orleans Saints in Thursday night's final preseason game. 

As ESPN.com's Jamison Hensley reported Tuesday, Forsett is planning to volunteer with the United Way to aid flood-relief efforts in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Forsett will also donate $2,500 worth of body wipes, as well as $7,500 and other items.      

"I'm reaching out to support this community because I know that this type of disaster could really happen to any of us," Forsett told Hensley. 

The devastating floods that hit the Baton Rouge area earlier this month resulted in 13 deaths and the damage or destruction of over 60,000 homes.
