Between winning the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year and the Ann and Wellington Mara Award from Boys Hope Girls Hope of New York, Eli Manning's charity work in 2017 certainly hasn't gone unnoticed.
This past spring, Manning added to his recent run of meaningful off-the-field accomplishments, by helping raise $250,000 for Tackle Kids Cancer. The new fundraising campaign, known as “Eli’s Challenge”, was launched last fall to coincide with Tackle Kids Cancer’s one-year anniversary. The two-time Super Bowl MVP pledged to match grassroots donations up to $100,000. The initiative culminated in the spring, when Manning helped present the check at the inaugural TKC All-Stars event.
