Atlanta Falcons Owner Arthur Blank Donates $5.4 Million to Coronavirus Relief

Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank has donated $5.4 million to help Atlanta citizens recover from the coronavirus.

Blank announced his donation to the Greater Atlanta COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund set up to help people in the region get through the virus, TMZ reported.

“As a Family Foundation, we have always believed that it is the power of many that will make the greatest impact on the most pressing issues in our society,” Blank said on Friday.

“This is that moment — to join together to truly harness the power of all of us to address a challenge that knows no boundaries and has no precedent in our lifetimes,” the 77-year-old added.

The NFL owner also said he was giving $100,000 to Atlanta’s public schools, another $100,000 to the city’s police department, and $100,000 each to six other non-profits that will help provide food relief for Atlantans.

That is admirable.  I'm still waiting for ole Bloomers to donate billions to help his fellow New Yorkers. While everyone else is focusing on combating the coronavirus he's focused on spending billions to defeat the one guy who the current major of NY has actually thanked for his help.  What a putz.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
