Jared Cook has been a staple in the community throughout his career. The Rams’ tight end has established community roots in St. Louis as a member of the Rams and Nashville, where he held a pro contract with the Tennessee Titans. He’s also built ties in his homestate of Georgia and Columbia, S.C., where he played his college ball. Now, his reach extends to St. Lucie County, Fla., where he has become an integral voice of the “Restoring the Village” initiative.
Restoring the Village started in 2013 by Scott Van Duzer, a local business owner in Fort Pierce, Fla.
