Bo Knows Charity

And as an alumnus of Auburn University, I was proud to see fellow alum and Heisman Trophy-winner Bo Jackson working to make a difference to those affected. A year ago, an outbreak of more than 60 tornadoes killed more than 200 people in Alabama. This week, Bo Jackson will trade his football pads for a bicycle as he launches his “Bo Bikes Bama” charity ride across the state to raise money for tornado relief. He’ll be joined along the way by sports figures including Lance Armstrong, Ken Griffey, Jr., and downhill skier Picabo Street. Ultimately, he hopes to raise $1 million for tornado relief in the state.
