Alvin Kamara’s Christmas Performance Brings $21,000 to New Orleans Charity

Good News Notes:

After Saints running back Alvin Kamara recorded a six-touchdown performance in a 52–33 victory against the Vikings on Christmas Day, fantasy players could not have been happier.

Following Kamara’s big performance, Saints fans and fantasy players returned the favor. Son of Saint, a charity organization that mentors boys who have lost their fathers due to death or incarceration, is one that Kamara supports heavily. 

The organization received nearly $21,000 in donations from nearly 400 different supporters. 

Bivian ‘Sonny’ Lee III, the founder of Son of Saint, said the organization was grateful for Kamara choosing the organization as his charity of choice.

‘As an organization, we turn 10 years old at the strike of midnight, so this makes the generosity even more meaningful as we kick off 2021,’ Lee told ESPN. ‘As we grow to 200 boys being enrolled, generous donations like these allow us to be more impactful and fulfill our mission. I want to thank Alvin Kamara and all who have donated so far.’

Kamara has never played fantasy football and said his main focus is just helping the Saints win games.”
