Colin Kaepernick Donates Custom Suits Outside New York Parole Office
Colin Kaepernick continued his productive offseason by handing out suits in front of a New York State parole office to people recently released from prison searching for work.
The NFL quarterback teamed up withย 100 Suits, a nonprofit program that aims to lowerย recidivism rates by donating business attire. Founderย Kevin Element Livingston posted a photo of their efforts in Queens on Instagram.
Kaepernick, who remains a free agent, has devoted his time to charitable causes. In March, he successfully helped get a plane to send food and water to Somalia through theย #TurkishAirlinesHelpSomalia social media campaign. He promoted a GoFundMe page that has now raised over $2.5 million.
The Colin Kaepernick Foundationย recently announced $100,000 of total donations to multiple charities. Shortly after President Donald Trump appeared toย take credit for the quarterback's unsigned status, Kaepernick donated $50,000 to Meals on Wheels.ย
Nevertheless, Bleacher Report's Mike Freeman reported an NFL executive called Kaepernick an "embarrassment to football." An AFC general manager said some people in the league "genuinely hate him" for refusing to stand during the national anthem last season.
