The Gridiron Greats Assistance fund is looking to launch their social community this August at an NFL Legends event.  In our continuing partnership with the organization, Telligent was approached to add some additional functionality to the work we did back in February at Super Bowl XLII.

New features included:

• Forums/Discussions - Ever wanted to ask Mike Ditka a question? Here's your chance.
  
• Media Gallery - Don't just read about what's happening, see it for yourself.
  
• Groups - Join your favorite team's group and meet those NFL legends.
  

About Gridiron Greats

Mike Ditka, Willie Davis, Harry Carson, Gale Sayers, Kyle Turley and others form The Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund, a non-profit organization that provides financial assistance, social services and medical care to retired NFL players in dire need. The organization focuses on the humanitarian side of post-football related issues, providing hands-on assistance to help retired players deal with hardships they may face after football. NFL legend Jerry Kramer, who played for the legendary Vince Lombardi on the Super Bowl I and II teams, facilitated the formation of the organization. Many members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and other NFL legends join us in our efforts. Some of the NFL greatest players have had to deal with disabilities and other hardships, many are gone but they are certainly not forgotten. NFL players like: Johnny Unitas, Mike Webster, 'Night Train' Lane and many others had to deal with many physical issues and other hardships caused by the lack of NFL disability support and adequate pensions. The Gridiron Greats Organization facilitates our mission in the memory of the "Makers of the Game."
