As I’ve said before, it’s been great watching the world of football step up in such a gigantic way during this crisis.
Ehlinger is just a college student, but he’s putting his huge platform to work. He’s doing his part to win the war, and he’s setting a great example.

Raising more than $100,000 on GoFundMe is a serious amount of cash. There are a lot of people that are going to benefit from Ehlinger’s efforts to win the war against coronavirus.
Hopefully, more and more people will follow his lead, put their platforms to work and help pool resources to help those in need.
