June 30, 2025 — San Francisco, CA
In an extraordinary act of generosity, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy has shocked fans and inspired a nation by donating his entire $15.9 million bonus and sponsorship earnings to fight homelessness in the Bay Area.
The donation will fully fund the construction of 150 transitional housing units and 300 emergency shelter beds in San Francisco — a region struggling with rising homelessness and housing insecurity.
“I didn’t grow up with millions, but I grew up with love,” Purdy said in a statement.
“If I can help bring that sense of safety and dignity to just one more family, then this is the easiest decision I’ll ever make.”
