Syracuse Fans, Help Eric Devendorf Help the People of Flint

While the world is awash in stories of terrible stuff these days, surely the situation of Flint, Michigan hasn't escaped your radar. Whatever the politics are doesn't really matter, what matters is that tons of people in Flint have been exposed to toxic levels of lead from drinking water from aging pipes. Thousands of children have been affected, many of whom are going to have medical problems if they don't already. Some have even died from Legionnaires' disease that may have been caused by the dirty water as well.

While the state drags its feet to help people, former Syracuse Orange player Eric Devendorf is doing what he can to help.
