Colin Kaepernick has been making phenomenal contributions for the community in which he has been donating thousands of dollars to organizations that combat against police brutality, mistreatment of minorities, along with a myriad of charities. Celebrities such as Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, T.I., and Snoop Dogg have all donated large sums of money for Kaepernick’s Million Dollar Pledge.
A goal of Kaepernick’s was to donate $1 million along with the proceeds of his 2016 jersey sales to organizations in oppressed communities. The plan was to generate $100,000 a month for 10 months.
The Million Dollar Pledge is now completed as Kaepernick announced on Twitter that Usher contributed $10,000 to match his $10,000 to donate to the H.O.M.E organization that is based out of Lithonia, Georgia. It helps oppressed single mothers in the Lithonia and Atlanta area.
Kaepernick’s efforts to bring the injustices of racism and police brutality to light since 2016 has been nothing short of amazing and his Million Dollar Pledge adds on to his remarkable legacy.
