An already heartwarming story about Minnesota Vikings fans and their sportsmanship just got even better.

As of this morning, Vikings fans have raised over $25K to support the foundation (What You Give Will Grow) of New Orleans Saints' kicker, Morstead, who was injured in the game this past Sunday.

Morstead announced that he will be collecting these donations and donating them back to Minnesota, specifically to the Child Life Program at Children's Minnesota.

A beautiful example of how we can join together to #BeTheLight in the lives of many. To Thomas Morstead and the Vikings fans who have already donated, we thank you. Congrats to Children's Minnesota, our primary hospital for the Twin Cities branch of the Northern Lights Foundation.
