Giving Back to Those in Need

"Retired players have been very good to me over the years. They have granted me interviews and helped me get in touch with their teammates. I have been able to form a bond with these players. I want to give back to them. Not all players, especially the older players, are multi-millionaires. Many struggle to pay their mounting medical bills and struggle to transition to life after football. They need help. Therefore, a portion of all proceeds from the FLA will go to help retired players in need." - FLA Founder Ken Crippen

George Visger

Speaker, Author, Consultant

"I began my football career over 45 years ago at the age of 11 and was hospitalized with my most severe concussion during my 3rd year of Pop Warner at age 13. I suffered a concussion against the Dallas Cowboys, was told to "suck it up" and was administered over 20 smelling salts to keep me on the field. A Super Bowl win and nine brain surgeries later, it's time we address this issue and find ways to help millions of kids who have and will suffer the long-term effects from concussions."
