Bradford M. Freeman, former player of the Stanford University’s football made a transformative $50 million donation to a program. This contribution, one of the largest in Stanford Athletics history, aims to elevate the football program amid a rapidly changing college sports landscape. The gif will fund new scholarships, support Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) initiatives.

“This is a game-changing gift for Stanford,” said President Jonathan Levin. “It will help us to recruit top talent and compete at the highest level. Brad’s generosity and commitment to football will benefit our entire athletics department, as excellence in football will support success across all 36 varsity sports.”
