Updates

Beginning this week, more than 30 charitable activities and outreach events will take place in Arizona for Super Bowl LVII. 

Super Bowl Week activities include community events such as community greening projects, Salute to Service events to honor the military and veterans, NFL PLAY 60 Kids Day and a series of volunteer projects involving the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award nominees. 

As part of Inspire Change, the NFL will work with three local community organizations to address the digital divide and the way it impacts youth. Working with Chicanos Por La Causa, the Greater Phoenix Urban League, and Native American Connections and non-profit Compudopt, the NFL will provide laptops to hundreds of children impacted by unequal access to technology via a grant from the NFL Foundation. 

Throughout the week, the NFL will honor, empower, and connect with the military community through a number of Salute to Service events. The week will kick off with Military Appreciation Day at Super Bowl Experience followed by the USA Wheelchair Football League Championships. With support from an NFL and Bob Woodruff Foundation Salute to Service grant, Move United started a USA Wheelchair Football League for athletes with disabilities, including veterans. During Super Bowl week, a championship game will showcase the sport and invite NFL Legends to serve as honorary captains. NFL representatives will also visit Luke Air Force Base as part of its Community Day to meet and interact with service members from the U.S. Navy and Air Force, including the pilots conducting the Super Bowl LVII flyover.

The NFL will support the LGBTQ community throughout the week in a number of ways. A Night of Pride with GLAAD is an evening of music and interview-style conversations with GLAAD, NFL friends, and partners to spotlight advances in and the future of LGBTQ inclusion in professional sports as well as the NFL's commitment to former and current LGBTQ players and LGBTQ league members. The NFL will also welcome youth and their families from one-n-ten, a Phoenix-area non-profit dedicated to serving and assisting LGBTQ individuals, for a special flag football clinic that features members of the Gay Flag Football League. These youth will also receive allyship cards written by current and former NFL players to express their support for them as members of the LGBTQ community. 

The Super Bowl LVII Business Connect program brings together 200+ companies who participated in the year-long program designed to bring Super Bowl-related contract opportunities, professional development and networking opportunities to local, diverse businesses in the Phoenix area.

Business Connect suppliers have secured contracts to work a myriad of jobs over the 10 days of events leading up to Super Bowl LVII, including catering, transportation, entertainment, décor, staging, barricades, and construction at State Farm Stadium to meet gameday needs and more.

High school football student-athletes and coaches will be celebrated by the NFL with two separate events at the Super Bowl, highlighting the values and fun associated with the game of football.

The NFL seeks to leave a lasting legacy in the surrounding communities of the Super Bowl host city with the Super Bowl Legacy Grant Program, made possible by an annual $1 million contribution from the NFL Foundation and matched by the Super Bowl Host Committee. This year, the NFL and the Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee will support local non-profits with proven track records of benefiting underserved Arizonans.
