Canes football players donate food and water to first responders at Surfside building collapse

Members of the Miami Hurricanes football team and staff were among the many individuals from South Florida sports teams to help out at the site of the tragic collapse of the Champlain Towers South in Surfside, Florida.

Five Hurricane players, seniors Mike Harley and Amari Carter, and freshman Kamren Kitchens, Chase Smith and James Williams, were accompanied by Jorge Baez, director of player development, and Shirelle Jackson, senior associate athletic director.

The group brought Miami’s Best Pizza and bottles of water for first responders working to rescue the missing residents of the building.

“Just being teenagers and grown men, sacrificing our time on the weekends just to help out, that just means everything,” Harley told Mike Cugno of CBS4 Miami.
