Falcons RB Bijan Robinson donates $300K to fight homelessness

Falcons RB Bijan Robinson donated $300K to Mobile Loaves & Fishes to help fight homelessness

Before the Atlanta Falcons shocked the NFL by drafting quarterback Michael Penix Jr., they caused a similar uproar by selecting running back Bijan Robinson in 2023.

However, it didn’t take Robinson long to prove he was worthy of the No. 8 pick. The rookie led the team with 1.400 all-purpose yards last season, but he’s making a bigger impact off the field.

Robinson donated $300,000 to Mobile Loaves & Fishes, an organization that helps fight homelessness in Austin, Texas:

Community First! Village is a master planned neighborhood that provides affordable, permanent housing and a supportive community for men and women who are coming out of chronic homelessness. A development of Mobile Loaves & Fishes, this transformative residential program exists to love and serve our neighbors who have been living on the streets, while also empowering the surrounding community into a lifestyle of service with the homeless. — via MLF.org

Robinson’s donation will help 370 people experiencing homelessness in Austin, according to the NFLPA’s Twitter account
