Jalen Hurts is one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in NFL history, and the Eagles star is prepared to spread some of that wealth after creating the Jalen Hurts Foundation.
Philadedlphia’s fifth-year quarterback made the announcement just hours before the Eagles reported to the NovaCare Complex for training camp.
When the bell rings, we will lead the charge for change.

— The Jalen Hurts Foundation (@JalenHurtsFound) July 23, 2024
The non-profit was founded on the principles of “service, mentorship, and progression.”
The Jalen Hurts Foundation was founded out of years of service and overwhelming gratitude to the communities that have generously become a home away from home for Jalen. Its mission is to strengthen communities by servicing and advancing the youth. This will be done by providing resources and support programs to create positive role models among our youth. There is an opportunity to encourage and nurture our youth to pursue their passions and it is a privilege to use our platform to do so.
The move comes almost a year after Hurts donated $200K to the Philadelphia School District for 300 air conditioning units in 10 local schools.
