Christian Miller is a high school football player from Hilton Head. Ā Tuesday morning he sent Carolina Blitz the following tweet.
I would like to personally thank @CameronNewton and the @CamNewton7v7 Foundation for the $200, 3.5 GPA CN17V7 Team Alumni Giveaway. Cam does so much for kids that goes unnoticed. ???????? #Grateful #StudentAthlete pic.twitter.com/jUPbTkn93d

Christian, who is the only player from South Carolina currently on Newton’s flag football team, didn’t have an agenda. Ā He wasn’t interested in getting his name out there. Ā He didn’t care about followers. Ā Christian just wanted to share how Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has impacted him.
About a week ago, Cam, via his foundation’s 7 on 7 flag football Instagram page, invited all tournament alumni with a 3.5 cumulative GPA this semester to send him proof of their academic success and in return he would give them $200.
Christian made sure to tell Carolina Blitz how much he has enjoyed his CNF All Star experience.
“Everything is free. Ā We eat good. Ā Sleep good. Ā Ride good. Ā Play good and have a lot of fun,”
When I asked him how he spent the $200, which he received through the Cash App, he told me:
“Very wisely. Ā I’m taking the SAT this weekend. Ā I will use some of it to register for the ACT. Ā I want to be an example of giving too. Ā I will donate $20 to the American Red Cross for Hurricane Disaster Relief.”
This is how you make a generational impact on your community. Ā Kudos to Cam, Christian and all his CNF Alumni who are excelling on and off the field. Ā Keep Blitzin.
