Bruce Kittle and his son, 49ers TE, George Kittle are teaming up to support our nation's heroes. On April 29th, 2023, Bruce is set to compete in the St. Anthony Triathlon in St. Petersburg, Florida, dedicating every mile of the race to Merging Vets and Players. George Kittle Auction is live and will be an opportunity for the highest bidder to win George's 2023 'My Cause My Cleats' signed along with a signed jersey and custom video. This auction is set to end on April 29th.
All proceeds from both efforts will be donated to Merging Vets and Players (MVP), a 501(c)3 nonprofit that helps Veterans and former Professional Athletes find a new team and a new mission after the uniform comes off.
Merging Vets and Players aims to ensure that no one feels alone during the process, providing support and resources to those who are transitioning out of the uniform. Kittle family contributions are aimed at raising awareness and funds to prevent death by suicide and to promote whole health practices among our Nation's heroes. For some, the biggest battle begins after the uniform comes off.
