The Chris Long Foundation Information

The Chris Long Foundation is a nonprofit, founded by two-time Super Bowl Champion and 2018 NFL Walter Payton Man of the Year Chris Long. We are dedicated to serving those most at risk, at home and abroad. Started in 2015, The Chris Long Foundation has engaged in both international and domestic programs focused around clean water, educational equity, and military support. Our programs strive to generate impactful results by creating opportunities and providing resources, financial support, and meaningful experiences to those we serve. Waterboys is our cornerstone initiative that unites professional athletes from across the NBA and NFL with fans to bring clean water to East African communities in need. To date, we have provided water to over 235,000 and are well on our way to reaching our goal of providing clean water to 1 million people. Since 2017, our educational initiatives First Quarter for Literacy and Pledge 10 for Tomorrow have infused over $2.25 million into educational equity programming and early childhood literacy. We are a team of professional athletes and passionate fans, ready to make a difference. Join us.
