SGG attended a Fund Raiser for “Beyond the Boroughs” A charity established by Former NFL Player Tutan Reyes.  Reyes,  a 10 year Veteran of the NFL  and Native New Yorker, established his charity in 2007, as a national scholarship program.

During his remarkable 10 year career, Tutan Reyes has come to the aid of the people in his community, and still remains humble in his philanthropic pursuits. He aims to help students from beyond his alma mater in Jamaica Queens- to help any student who eagerly wants to go to college, but can not afford it.

Each scholarship is $20,000 over four years and is awarded to both male and female students of any race from any of the 50 United States. Reyes has also been active in replicating the success of this program by building the administrative capacity for other players to distribute scholarships.

This is SGG’s 2nd year in attendance and the events keep getting better.  If you wanna support Beyond the Boroughs contact them through there website. http://www.beyondtheboroughs.org/

Reyes said that you can do a monthly pledge of $5 or $10.  Every Little bit helps a Kid continue their education.
