BATON ROUGE — Joe Burrow and other members of the 2019 national championship-winning LSU football team reunited in Baton Rouge over the weekend to raise money for the Joe Burrow Foundation.
The foundation held its inaugural Burrow's Tiger Tee-Off on Saturday at TopGolf and raised $550,000. Funds will be used to support food education programs and a new community rescue kitchen in Louisiana.
“I am thankful to all of the donors and supporters that came out this evening,” Burrow said. “It means a lot to give back to a community that has given me so much already. Baton Rouge will always hold a special place in my heart.”
Attendees included tight end Thaddeus Moss, offensive coordinator Steve Ensminger and, Raising Cane's founder Todd Graves in addition to Burrow and his parents, Jimmy and Robin Burrow.
“We are so excited to reunite with our friends in Baton Rouge,” Robin Burrow said. “When we started this foundation, Joe really wanted to make sure we included all of the places that really made him who he is. LSU was his home away from home, and really where he became Joe Burrow, so launching this event here feels incredibly meaningful for our entire family.”
