Fantasy Owners Donate $21K to Charity Following Alvin Kamara’s Six-TD Game

New Orleans Saints star running back had a monster week 16.  The electric running back finished the game with six touchdowns, and help propel  many fantasy owners to league championships.  Now those very same owners are giving back some of their winnings. Saints fans and fantasy owners gave money to Son of a Saint, which provides “mentorship, education, recreation, camaraderie, cultural enrichment, emotional support and [helps] to fill the void for dozens of fatherless young men in New Orleans.”

According to ESPN, the organization has received $21,000 and counting from some 400 donors:

I got a few questions about an @A_kamara6 charity for those who want to pay it forward if he wins them a fantasy title — a great idea that @GehlkenNFL has suggested for years.

I'm told Kamara supports @sonofasaintorg if anyone wants to donte in his honor https://t.co/HbifGybBNx https://t.co/QstqRUirsy

Kamara spoke about the donations:

“People, they’re strong about this fantasy football throughout the whole year. … I don’t want to even echo some of the stuff that they’ve messaged and tweeted, stuff like that. But it’s good to see people keep their word and they’re willing to donate,” Kamara said. “I don’t know how much you play fantasy football for; I’ve never played it. … But it’s going to a good organization. I’m just blessed to be able to help Son of a Saint at the same time.”

Fantasy owners can be absolutely awful at times,  but sometimes they’re not so bad, especially when they’re winning.

Kamara owners have a lot to be thankful for.
