Hall of Fame linebacker Dick Butkus has supported many charitable causes following his NFL career.   The Butkus Foundation, Inc. (501c3) has been formed to manage the receipt and disbursement of funds for his charitable causes.

The following initiatives are underway:

I Play Clean™ Campaign – Butkus is tackling the issue of steroids among high school athletes through this national grassroots campaign.

Butkus Awards® -- Butkus is generating attention and proceeds for the I Play Clean program through presentation of the Butkus Awards.

51 Founders – Butkus is seeking 51 like-minded individuals to provide seed capital for the I Play Clean program and Butkus Awards.

Butkus knows it takes a team to make a difference.  He invites like-minded individuals and corporations to join him.  He does not benefit personally from proceeds invested through the Butkus Foundation.
