Step up big this season and support at-risk youth in San Diego!

This season, with the help of NFL legend Andre Reed, I’m inviting fans to help at-risk young people in the San Diego area by making a pledge to the Touchdowns for Kids campaign.

Make a pledge for every Chargers touchdown recorded during the 2016 season. Proceeds go to Keenan’s Dreambuilders program and its support of Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater San Diego.

PLEDGE $1 OR MORE

When you make a pledge of at least $1 per Chargers touchdown or a flat donation of $25 or more, you will be entered to win a signed helmet. (Minimum donation of $25 for the season to be entered to win the drawing at the end of the season. Winner will be notified by email at the end of the season.)

PLEDGE $5 OR MORE

When you make a pledge of $5 per Chargers touchdown or more or a flat donation of at least $300, you will receive a special invitation for two to Keenan Allen’s Champions Reception, where you and a guest will meet Keenan and each get a special autographed gift and a photo. Complementary food and drinks will also be provided. (Minimum donation of at least $300 for the season to attend the reception. You will be contacted by email with your invitation to the event.)


Who Benefits?

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater San Diego (BGCGSD) has been changing the lives of young people from diverse, at-risk backgrounds for the past 74 years. We are the largest Boys & Girls Club in Southern California, serving more than 25,000 youth through 19 sites across San Diego County, from as far east as Borrego Springs and as far south as National City. Boys & Girls Clubs of America has ranked BGCGSD in the top 2% of all Boys & Girls Clubs in the country in revenue and expenses, and number of youth served. Our enriching after school programs focus on academic success, good character and healthy lifestyles – transforming young people’s lives and helping them grow up to be caring, productive, civic-minded and successful citizens of their communities.

In 2015, BGCGSD gave out over $681,000 in scholarships to children with a proven financial need. The funds from this campaign will support our scholarship program and allow us to continue our important work.


Why It Matters?

Many of the young people who attend our various Clubhouses face tremendous challenges in their day-to-day lives. More than 71% organization-wide – with far greater numbers at some sites – come from significantly low-income families, based on eligibility for free or reduced lunches. Many of the communities are replete with crime, drugs and gang violence. For many working families, the Boys & Girls Clubs offer the only safe after-school option for their children, providing a nurturing and supportive environment where young people can flourish.

Professional, well-trained staff supervise children and lead quality programs during the critical after-school hours. For many, this becomes a “home away from home,” their anchor in stormy times, and an essential stepping stone to a brighter and more promising future. These youth represent all social, economic and ethnic backgrounds who seek the same thing we all do – a chance to belong, to grow and thrive, become successful, develop their skills, abilities and self-confidence.


Thank You

This campaign goes beyond football, it’s about giving to those who truly need and deserve our support. Thank you for supporting my cause and all of your support throughout my career!
