Giving back has been at the forefront of Tre Boston's mind since he reached football's pinnacle.
As a kid, Boston saw the impact that fellow North Fort Myers High alum and NFL star Jevon Kearse had on the local community with his foundation and knew that if he had the opportunity, he would do the same.
The former Red Knights standout has been active in the community the past five years since being a fourth-round draft pick by the Carolina Panthers in 2014.
