Former LSU star Derrius Guice raising money for a Baton Rouge cancer center

Former LSU running back Derrius Guice is now a Washington Redskins rookie, but he hasn't forgotten his hometown of Baton Rouge.

Guice has started a $15,000 GoFundMe account for a donation to the Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center in Baton Rouge.

Guice wrote on the GoFundMe account page that "Cancer is a disease that I am passionate about. It takes so many lives and loved ones each year. One of my best friend's mother went to Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center and was able to leave ringing that bell. It is the bell each patient rings when they have beat cancer.
