The Manning Family legacy of giving back to the community continues with Texas Longhorns freshman Arch Manning donating the entire proceeds from his Panini America Rookie Trading Card (1/1) that garnered $102,500 to charity.
Manning has not played in a single game this season, it is possible he will not, and that is okay as Manning is in the coach Sarkisian quarterback development program.
While Manning was still attending high school and had not yet made a commitment to a program, Manning commented about his visit to The University of Texas saying, “Feels like home.”
Manning has donated 100% of the proceeds ($102,500) to the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Texas. The money will be used for one purpose which is the mission of the Ronald McDonald House, “Keeping Families Close – RMHC gives a family with a sick child what they need most – each other.”
In August 2023, Panini America Trading Cards created Arch Manning’s rookie card, Arch signed it and put it up for auction that raised the $102,500. While this was considered an NIL deal, Manning never intended to keep the money and stated that publicly right after committing to Texas.
