Houston Texans safety Jalen Pitre’s Pitreboyz Foundation making an impact on and off the field
Houston – Houston Texans standout Jalen Pitre is known for his hard hits and playmaking on game day, but it’s his heart off the field that’s scoring just as big. The Stafford native is the founder of the Pitre Boyz Foundation , an initiative focusing on uplifting youth, empowering communities, and helping kids explore their potential early in life.
Recently honored at Stafford’s Juneteenth celebration, Pitre is using his platform to give back to the same community that shaped him. The foundation focuses on everything from physical development to nutrition, all while encouraging kids under 18 to think outside the box and dream bigger.
Watch his entire interview with Houston Life reporter Lauren Kelly in the video player above.
