Football Star DeAngelo Williams Pays for 500 Mammograms to Honor Mom Who Died of Breast Cancer
Former Pittsburgh Steelers running back DeAngelo Williams is still dedicated to fighting breast cancer.
The star running back, who played college football at the University of Memphis, started covering the cost of mammogram screening for women in 2015 through his nonprofit organization, The DeAngelo Williams Foundation.
Since then, the foundation has covered the cost of over 500 mammograms at hospitals located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Memphis, Tennessee; Jonesboro, Arkansas; and Charlotte, North Carolina.
Williams is a staunch supporter of breast cancer awareness. In 2014, his mother Sandra Hill died from breast cancer when she was just 53 years old. Williams also lost his four aunts to the disease, all before the age of 50.
