Our Mission

Aaron Donald was announced as a Take Back Sports Ambassador, joining a roster of athletes and voices working to make sure every kid has access to sports, regardless of where they come from. For Aaron, the partnership is a natural extension of the work he's already doing through the AD99 Foundation — using his own story as a foundation for helping the next generation find the same discipline, purpose, and opportunity that sports gave him.

Aaron Donald and Andrew Whitworth's Built in the Trenches camp brought together 200+ student-athletes in grades 4-12 for free, hands-on line technique training, mentorship, and leadership development from current and former NFL players. Every camper walked away with lunch, a T-shirt, and lessons in hard work and character that go beyond the field.

The Aaron Donald 99 Foundation, in collaboration with Athletes First and Morgan Stanley Global Sports & Entertainment, today announced the launch of a year-long NIL Mentorship & College Transition Program designed to support graduating high school seniors as they prepare to enter collegiate athletics.
