Pat Tillman consistently proved throughout his lifetime that he could outperform anyone’s expectations for him — and he showed it when he went from being drafted 226th in 1998 to becoming the starting safety for the Arizona Cardinals.
That spirit and tenacity is why we’ve created Team 226, a monthly membership program that sustains our foundation and our Tillman Scholars program throughout the year and brings our most committed supporters deeper into our community. We’re so excited to announce DraftKings as Team 226’s presenting sponsor and that for the next year, they’ll match donations from all new Team 226 members, up to $50,000!
We’re also rolling out some updated benefits for this community of supporters — here’s what to expect when you double your impact and make it monthly this year.
