Chris Rogers, TAP helped Da’Ron Payne give away 112,000 pounds of food to families in Washington, D.C. for COVID-19 relief

He has heard so many stories on the journey he’s been on for three months.

He has felt the emotions of pain, hurt, stress and fear, but in his embrace a new emotion has surfaced: hope.

After helping families in Birmingham (Ala.), San Jose (Calif.), Baltimore (Md.) and Sterling (Va.) that have been affected by the Coronavirus pandemic, Chris Rogers and his team at Together Assisting People turned their attention to the Washington, D.C. area on last week. A native Birmingham, former Crimson Tide star Da’Ron Payne knows Rogers’ vision and wanted his help.

As a first-round pick of the Washington Football Team in 2018 NFL Draft, Payne and TAP provided 112,000 pounds of food at Martha’s Table on last weekend.
