Jayson Tatum steps up to support St. Louis after tragedy hits hometown

In mid-May, just a few days after Jayson Tatum ruptured his Achilles, a tornado swept through his hometown of St. Louis. The tornado damaged about 5,000 buildings, injuring 38 people and killing five.

A few weeks later, Tatum’s foundation — the Jayson Tatum Foundation — hosted a food drive to assist affected families. The June 1st drive collected more than 52,000 lbs. of food and supplies that were dispersed to those in need.

On June 14th, Tatum’s foundation is hosting a second drive to collect food items, personal care products, and household cleaning supplies.
