Taking care Beyond the Field

And into schools. Neighborhoods. Families. We teamed up with some of our NFL friends to spend their day off creating a whole lot of care for our communities.

How much care can you create in a day?

We wanted to find out. So we gave a Truist Visa card and a team of people to Greg Olsen, Jaylen Waddle, Younghoe Koo, DeMarcus Lawrence, and Jalen Hurts, and let them design their ultimate day of care.

Greg Olsen

Watch his day of care for Greg Olsen.

Care is a matter of heart for Greg and his family. Their world shifted when his son, T.J., was born with congenital heart disease in 2012. But after a transplant in 2021, T.J. is thriving—and helping his dad pay forward the kindness they received in Charlotte, North Carolina.

We're really excited for today.

00:00:01 --> 00:00:04

This is a day that we've been looking forward to for a while now.

00:00:05 --> 00:00:06

I'm Greg Olsen.

00:00:06 --> 00:00:09

I've teamed up with Truist for a community day of giving and connect

00:00:09 --> 00:00:12

with some of the special places and the special people here in the community.

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

I'm at a loss for words to see someone

00:00:15 --> 00:00:17

see the special place that it is.

00:00:17 --> 00:00:20

It means everything. I think this is exactly what we needed.

00:00:20 --> 00:00:25

And I hope you guys enjoy taking a ride with us as we go Beyond the Field.

Jaylen Waddle

Watch his day of care for Jaylen Waddle.

Jaylen Waddle is changing the game. Whether it’s through his hard work on the football field, his dedication to the people of Miami, or the care he gives to those in need—Jaylen is out to make a difference.

00:00:03 --> 00:00:04

So I partnered with Truist

00:00:04 --> 00:00:08

to go Beyond the Field and take care of my Miami community.

00:00:08 --> 00:00:10

To actually have somebody like yourself

00:00:10 --> 00:00:14

because, you know, you come in here and do it, take the time.

00:00:14 --> 00:00:17

And it's really a lot of things you could have done to take the time

00:00:18 --> 00:00:21

and let people know what we're doing in the community and it’s appreciated.

00:00:23 --> 00:00:27

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

Let's get this day started.

00:00:09 --> 00:00:14

We really do survive on the people in our community buying

00:00:14 --> 00:00:17

into what we're doing, seeing the problem, understanding how they can help.

00:00:17 --> 00:00:20

And so to see somebody in our community

00:00:20 --> 00:00:22

partnering with us to do that, it's unbelievable.

00:00:23 --> 00:00:27

We just want to give back, show some love, spread some love,

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

in the community.

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

We couldn't do it without people like DeMarcus Lawrence and Truist.

00:00:15 --> 00:00:19

Everything that we do has to come from individuals who are passionate

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21

about the mission and the families that we serve.

00:00:21 --> 00:00:26

Inspiring HOPE

We’ve partnered with Operation HOPE on a series of collaborative—and transformative—programs, like their 1 Million Black Businesses Initiative. That also includes bringing Operation HOPE financial coaches into our branches to help clients and community members reach financial goals of all kinds. On each day of care, our NFL friends stopped by a branch to learn about what these programs are accomplishing and to reward a financial coach for their dedication to their communities.
