Russell Wilson Still Giving Back to Steelers Community

Sports Illustrated-

Even though he’s well over a year removed from his last game as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Russell Wilson is still giving back to the city.

Wilson, who retired from the NFL this offseason and is now a part of CBS’ “The NFL Today” team, is still donating funds along with other resources to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Western Pennsylvania through his Why Not You Foundation and plans to keep on doing so in upcoming years much like he’s done since joining the Steelers in March 2024, per the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review’s Matthew Purucker.

“Western Pennsylvania holds a special place in the hearts of everyone on the foundation, including Russell and Ciara. … It no longer depends necessarily on where we live or work, our founders or otherwise,” Why Not You Foundation executive director Janelle Hahn said, according to Purucker. “We want to keep building those sustainable partnerships.”
