Ravens present check to nonprofit focusing on mentorship of youth
WELL, TONIGHT THE RAVENS PRESENTED THE ORGANIZATION HEART SMILES WITH A CHECK FOR $5,000. THAT’S A NONPROFIT BASED RIGHT HERE IN BALTIMORE, WHICH HELPS YOUNG PEOPLE TAKE CONTROL OF THEIR FUTURES THROUGH MENTORSHIP, CAREER EXPOSURE, INTERNSHIPS, AND A LOT MORE. RAVENS SAFETY KEONDRE JACKSON, CORNERBACK KEON MARTIN AND WIDE RECEIVER LAVONTE WORCESTER SPOKE ON A PANEL ABOUT THEIR UNCONVENTIONAL CAREER PATHS AND JOB FUNCTIONS. SELF CONFIDENCE. THAT’S THAT’S ONE OF THE MAIN THINGS THAT KIND OF HELPED ME THROUGHOUT MY WHOLE JOURNEY BECAUSE THIS ENVIRONMENT AND EVERYTHING LOOKED VERY FAMILIAR FROM WHERE I COME FROM. THERE’S SO MANY OTHER THINGS THAT YOU CAN DO BESIDES FOOTBALL, BUT THE MAIN THING IS JUST BELIEVING IN YOURSELF AND, YOU KNOW, RELYING ON OTHER PEOPLE THAT BELIEVE IN YOU AND USING THEM CONNECTIONS AND USING THOSE ASSETS TO GET YOU WHERE YOU REALLY WANT TO GO. TONIGHT’S EVENT WAS, IN PART PUT TOGETHER BY
