Kansas City Chiefs S Juan Thornhill revealed earlier this week that he’d be wearing custom cleats to honor three University of Virginia football players who died in a senseless shooting last Sunday. Thornhill, a UVA alum, is now going a step above to help raise money for the families of the players.
On Sunday afternoon, Thornhill took to Twitter to share that he’s hosting a fundraising raffle, featuring game-worn items and playoff tickets as prizes. Here is all the information:
“On Sunday, November 13th, 2022, tragedy struck the Charlottesville community when three young, outstanding men lost their lives.Three UVA football players, Larnel Davis Jr. (True Junior), D’Sean Perry (Redshirt Junior) & Devin Chandler (True Junior), tragically lost their lives. Two others were seriously injured in the incident.
I have started this giveaway to raise money for the victims’ families to help cover the cost of each of their funerals and alleviate other expenses the families are enduring.
As a UVA football alumnus and friend of the victims, this touches home for me as it does for so many across the nation. All donations from this campaign will go directly to each of the victim’s families to help alleviate any expenses due to the tragedy.
As a thank you for the donations, I would like to enter every donor into a giveaway for the following:
1) Game-worn tribute cleats, as pictured above
2) Signed Juan Thornhill game-worn jersey
3) Two (2) tickets to a Chiefs playoff game this postseason
Every $20 donated to this cause will give the donor one (1) ticket for the drawing. For instance, a $100 donation will equate to 5 raffle tickets.
The giveaway drawing will happen on Wednesday, November 23rd, 2022, and the winner will be chosen randomly.
Thank everyone for contributing to this cause that will fully support families in a time of need & grieving.”
