FLORIDA ATLANTIC FOOTBALL PLAYERS DO GOOD DEED, INDEED, AND EVERYBODY WINS!


A part of the “Paint Your Heart Out” project, this past weekend, the team’s starting kicker since 2014 and 30 of his teammates worked together to paint Sharon Pigott’s home in Delray Beach.  The event was done in conjunction with the Florida Waste Authority, and completed in 90 minutes.

Joseph is President of FAU’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee which engineers and participates in community service events.  Ms. Pigott had not spoken directly to the students on the day of painting, and she was impressed and pleased with the turnout and the work they did.


Teammates working side by side got to know each other better under this stressless activity. Joseph said the events are “teaching me a lot about leadership and I enjoy the responsibilities.  It helps mold me a bit.”
