Eagles Legend Shatters Fundraising Record in Emotional $1 Million Charity Event

Philadelphia, PA – July 1, 2025

In Philadelphia, he’s more than a former center. He’s the soul of the city. And now, Jason Kelce is building a legacy that stretches far beyond the trenches of Super Bowl LII.

Last week in Sea Isle City, Kelce and his wife Kylie turned a summer tradition into something much greater. The fifth annual Team 62 Fundraiser at Ocean Drive didn’t just bring the Eagles faithful together — it shattered expectations, raising over $1 million in less than a week for the Eagles Autism Foundation. A new record. A new standard.

Since 2021, Team 62 has raised more than $2.4 million, proving that in Philadelphia, fan passion translates into real-world impact.

But this wasn't just about numbers. It was about family. Brotherhood. Legacy. Familiar faces lined up behind the bar, not for drinks, but for a cause: Brandon Graham, Landon Dickerson, Cooper DeJean — Eagles past and present, standing shoulder to shoulder once again, this time to serve their community.

And it didn’t stop at Ocean Drive. The entire Sea Isle community became a sea of midnight green. From the Yacht Club’s third annual New Heights Beer Bowl, to beach yoga, to the family festival at Excursion Park — every event pulsed with purpose: to unite and uplift those affected by autism.

In an interview with ESPN’s Eagles Insider, Jason Kelce reflected on the event’s growth: “We just started this to give back. But the way Eagles fans show up — every year — it's more than we ever dreamed. This is what Philly is all about.”

Ryan Hammond, executive director of the Eagles Autism Foundation, called the Kelces “true ambassadors”, crediting their vision, energy, and leadership for elevating the mission and reaching more families than ever before.

And Jason? He’s not done.

"As long as Eagles fans keep showing up, I’ll keep throwing the party," he said with that signature grin that once lit up Lincoln Financial Field.

Jason Kelce may have stepped off the field — but his heart still plays for Philly. And this time, he’s leading the most meaningful drive of his career.
