In December 2005, a couple of rabid college football fans founded The Loyalty Fund, a non-profit foundation designed to help children with special needs live more comfortably, by paying for much-needed therapy and equipment, or helping with educational tools for mom and dad. As a joke, Steve Johnson, a Tennessee Volunteers fan and father of a child with Autism, put his fan loyalty up for sale on EBay. Through some strange happenings, Steve and the highest bidder, LSU fan Mike Moity, ended up starting The Loyalty Fund to lend a hand to the families of children with disabilities. You can read the entire remarkable story about how the fund came into existence here, courtesy of rivals.com. Please donate to The Loyalty Fund. |
