NEW ORLEANS New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams and his Jamaal Williams Foundation will donate to Son of a Saint for every rushing touchdown Williams gains in the 2023-24 season, as part of his Rush for Kids Campaign, sponsored by Latter & Blum.

Son of a Saint is a New Orleans-based 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to transforming the lives of boys who are fatherless due to their father’s death, long-term incarceration, deportation, or adoption by a single mother. The program provides its mentees with multifaceted, long-term support through mentorship, emotional support, development of life skills, exposure to constructive experiences and formation of positive, lasting peer-to-peer relationships.

"We believe in the power of creative and unique investments to uplift our youth, and we're grateful for the combined support of Jamaal Williams and Latter & Blum to bring this partnership to fruition," Son of a Saint Founder and CEO Bivian "Sonny" Lee III said. "Our mentees represent the future of New Orleans and its promise, and they're excited to continue cheering on Jamaal and the Saints throughout this season in such an impactful way.”

Williams is intentional about spending time with children and is often spotted playing catch with kids or taking photos during pregame warmups. The Rush for Kids Campaign, sponsored by Latter & Blum, is just one way the Jamaal Williams Foundation works to make a difference in the lives of young boys.

"Son of a Saint has an incredible track record with the young men they serve and empower,” says Latter & Blum Chairman and Owner Robert “Bob” Merrick. "Mentees who have graduated from Son of a Saint’s program have gone on to attend some pretty incredible colleges, enter the workforce, and serve our country in the armed forces. Every young man has a right path and a wrong path in front of him. When our community comes together to support young men, the wrong path vanishes and a journey to success begins. Our team is honored to support Son of a Saint through this partnership with Jamaal Williams.”
