Hayden Hurst donates $20k to help train a service dog for a veteran

Being in the NFL gives players a unique opportunity to use their platform for good, and give back to organizations and charities of their choosing. Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst is one such player who, through the Hayden Hurst Family Foundation, has remained committed to helping youth, military, and others in need regarding their health, education, and wellness by funding services and programs through donations and fundraising events.

Recently, Hurst and his family visited Top Dogg K9 Foundation (TDK9), a non-profit in metro Atlanta that trains and provides service dogs to veterans returning from duty.
