A Solid Foundation
to Inspiring Change

Led by the NFL’s All-Pro linebacker Roquan Smith, Roquan.org enhances the mental well-being of children through a variety of events, such as free football camps.

Roquan's journey, marked by remarkable achievements on and off the field, is deeply rooted in humble beginnings. Before becoming the first Dick Butkus Award winner from UGA (and winning again in the NFL), SEC Defensive Player of the Year, AP first-team All-Pro, Pro Bowler, Ravens MVP (local press), Ravens' Walter Payton Man of the Year, and the highest-paid linebacker in NFL history … before all that, Roquan had learned the value of hard work. From focused training and practice time, to digging farm irrigation systems in high school, to Pro Bowls and leading the Ravens’ defense, he will never forget where he comes from, regardless of the on-field triumphs.

Commitment on and off the field

Ro’s commitment to make a positive impact is as relentless as he is on the field. "If I leave [the Ravens] only known for being a really good linebacker, I've sold myself short, I've sold the organization short," he said. "It's my privilege, it's my honor to go out and do all the good work I can in the community. That's what truly matters to me."

Roquan.org uplifts, inspires, and
supports children and their families.
