International Medical Corps has partnered with Pro Player Insiders to increase awareness and provide additional support to health care and training programs that benefit underserved communities around the world.
Pro Player Insiders brings a unique, behind the scenes look at the lives and lifestyles of the players of the National Football League (NFL) with up-to-the-minute news, interviews, coverage of community events and featured contributions from current and former NFL players and their families, offering a peek into player’s personal lives and what matters to them, on and off the football field.
As part of its Giving Back series, ProPlayerInsiders.com will feature the work of International Medical Corps and, with its partner, sell wristbands featuring players such as Tom Brady, Eli and Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers and others to benefit International Medical Corps’ emergency response, health care and training programs worldwide.
“We are tremendously grateful to Pro Player Insiders for partnering with us to rebuild communities devastated by conflict or disaster,” said Rabih Torbay, Vice President of International Operations for International Medical Corps. “Their commitment to football and family is especially in line with our approach to helping families at highest risk regardless of dangerous environments or logistical challenges. Whether it’s reaching communities cut off from supply routes by natural disaster or assisting those displaced by armed conflict, Pro Player Insiders’ valuable partnership will allow International Medical Corps to bring lifesaving medical care and relief swiftly and effectively wherever it is most-needed.”
“Working as one team is a winning move on any field. Whether you are on the gridiron or responding to earthquakes and flooding, it’s about working together,” said Melissa Mahler Co-Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Pro Player Insiders. “I encourage everyone to support our team approach and make a positive difference in the lives of those in greatest need.”
