It is nothing new.
The program, in its 17th year, has seen the Chargers allocate funds to now 127 local schools. The campuses span across San Diego, from a $65,000 weight room at Granite Hills High in El Cajon to $63,000 for a weight room and football equipment at Sweetwater High in National City.
“It’s nothing out of the ordinary,” Dean Spanos said of the team’s grant program.
He hopes its season can be.
The Chargers chairman of the board is scheduled to appear Tuesday at a local high school. There, he will present a $75,000 commitment for a new campus weight room.
