Pro Football Retired Players Association Establishes PFRPA Operational Legacy Fund

ARLINGTON, Va., May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --  Pro Football Retired Players Association (PFRPA), a national organization that develops programs and benefits for retired NFL players, today announced the launch of the PFRPA Operational Legacy Fund.

PFRPA Board Chair Darrell Thompson described the formation of the endowment as a lasting promise to assist retired NFL players.

 

“The creation of the PFRPA Operational Legacy Fund shows our longstanding commitment to our mission, one that’s rooted in promoting the well-being of retired NFL players,” Thompson said. “It helps to ensure that PFRPA’s work will continue to make a positive impact.”

 

PFRPA Executive Director Joe Agbasi highlighted the Fund’s importance and the vision behind its adoption.

 

“The PFRPA Operational Legacy Fund affords our organization added stability and an opportunity to plan boldly, supporting our continued strategic growth,” Agbasi said.
