The Ashburn Youth Football League has been awarded a grant on behalf of Shawn Springs and Cliff Russell, as part of the NFL Player Matching Grant Program. The program allows current NFL Players who make financial contributions to approved youth and high school programs to apply to the NFL Youth Football Fund for matching grants.
About the NFL Youth Football Fund
