The Kristin Mitchell Foundation uses funds raised to award grants each year to local agencies dedicated to violence awareness education, and to offer a scholarship to one SJU undergraduate who best exemplifies Mitchell’s contributions to the University community.
During the event, attendees will have the opportunity to enter a raffle for an official Philadelphia Eagles jersey autographed by Jeremy Maclin.
