The Jets and the Johnson family continue to do their part in helping combat the COVID-19 pandemic.
The team announced Thursday that it is donating an additional $2 million to COVID-19 relief in New York and New Jersey. The Johnson family already donated $1 million to United Way agencies in the tri-state area.
“On behalf of my family and the Jets, we would like to extend our support to these organizations who battle daily against an unprecedented challenge,” said Jets CEO Christopher Johnson. “No region in the country has been affected by COVID-19 more than ours and because of that, our resolve has only grown. These organizations continue to nourish the vulnerable and target the needs of those on our front lines. At no time has being a good teammate ever mattered more.”
The $2 million donation will go to organizations that center on food insecurity, first responders and regional relief.
