When Robert Griffith became a member of the National Football League, he knew that the privilege of being a professional athlete, carries with it the obligation of social responsibility. That is why he created the ROBERT GRIFFITH FOUNDATION. This foundation allows Robert to share his successes and dreams with young people while making a contribution to the communities that supported him.

The ROBERT GRIFFITH FOUNDATION provides a comprehensive array of youth development programs to empower its participants, including mentoring, educational enrichment, organized sports and arts and cultural initiatives. Although the Foundation’s programming serves a broad base of youth, its target population is at risk and economically disadvantaged teens between the ages of 13-17 years old.
