We would like to thank all of the JSEL board members and supporters for joining our donation initiative to support groups combatting racism in America, advocating for criminal justice reform, and stopping police brutality. Together, we contributed nearly $3,400 to over 20 organizations waging these critical fights on the local and national level. Our work is not done, and we pledge to push JSEL forward as an organization that uses its platform to support issues surrounding race and equality in America. Sports has always been used as a platform for racial activism and we will continue to uphold this legacy.
