PINEVILLE, N.C. (CAROLINA SPORTS LIVE) — While Panthers Pro Bowl DT Derrick Brown is ramping up to get back to form this season, his impact in the greater Charlotte community is admirable.
Sunday afternoon, Brown spent the day with a few kids and their families to take them on a shopping spree at Dick’s Sporting Goods in Pineville.
Fifteen gift cards with a value of $150 were given to each family to spend on whatever they liked.
Brown was joined by his entire family, and he says that opportunities like these… he doesn’t take it for granted.
“I’ve been blessed, man, I’ve been blessed,” Brown said. “To just be able to come out here and help and do these things has been awesome. God has given me so much, it would be wrong for me not to give it back.”
