Fox Corporation and FOX Sports Announce Super Bowl LIX Community Initiatives Company Partners with Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Louisiana to Invest in Great Futures and Empower Workforce Development Programs for Youth New York, NY and Los Angeles, CA - February, 3, 2025 - Fox Corporation ( FOX or the Company ) (Nasdaq: FOX, FOXA) today announced a charitable commitment to Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Louisiana (BGCMLA) totaling more than $400,000 through its ongoing FOX Forward and FOX Sports Gamechanger Fund community impact initiatives.
The commitment to BGCMLA supports the organization's 10 Clubs state-wide to create long lasting, positive impact for youth throughout Louisiana and New Orleans, the host community of Super Bowl LIX, airing on FOX (Sunday, Feb. 9 at 6:30 p.m. ET). The efforts address the Clubs' civilian and U.S. military-connected youth population's life and workforce preparation needs and refurbishes the organization's New Orleans tech center for the 21st century.
FOX is honored to provide scholarships and resources to empower the next generation of leaders from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Louisiana community as they pursue their goals and work to build a bright future for New Orleans, said Lachlan Murdoch, Executive Chair and CEO, Fox Corporation.
Through the Company's FOX Forward and FOX Sports Gamechanger Fund corporate social responsibility initiatives, FOX is partnering with BGCMLA to implement and operate CareerLaunch, a cornerstone Boys & Girls Clubs of America program designed to support Club teens' journey to explore future vocations, make sound educational decisions and find success in the professional world. FOX's legacy investment also replaces the organization's outdated laptops and overhauls its wireless systems supporting 1,500 youth, updates its New Orleans tech center and purchases new sports equipment to retain and reengage the Club's teen population.
Through the Company's FOX Forward initiative, FOX is directing additional support for 400 military-connected youth at the Boys & Girls Club installation on Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans (NASJRBNO). The efforts expand BGCMLA's Life and Workforce Readiness programming, offering financial literacy education, career readiness curriculum, career pathway exploration and more through NASJRBNO's Teen Employment Program.
The Company's charitable commitment also establishes a number of scholarships to be distributed to BGCMLA youth over multiple years. The FOX Forward Military Youth Scholarship, a first-of-its-kind military youth offering for teens who successfully complete the Teen Employment Program, the FOX Forward Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Louisiana Scholarship, available to all BGCMLA youth who successfully complete CareerLaunch programming, and the FOX Sports Super Bowl LIX Scholarship, awarded to BGCMLA's representatives for the annual Boys & Girls Clubs of America Youth of the Year and Military Youth of the Year competitions, will empower the recipients' pursuit of life and career opportunities through higher education and vocational credentialing.
The week leading up to Super Bowl LIX, Eric Shanks, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Producer, FOX Sports, and FOX NFL Reporter Kristina Pink will present the charitable contribution to Angel Nelson, Chief Executive Officer, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Louisiana, during a ceremony at the New Orleans tech center. Additionally, in support of BGCMLA's teen youth, Pink will host an exclusive panel discussion exploring career pathways in sports media and technology.
The FOX Sports Gamechanger Fund was established in 2020 through the FOX Sports Supports community impact program and is designed to benefit nonprofit partners in its Super Bowl host cities, furthering the program's mission to create and advance fighting chances for underserved youth and our nation's military heroes. The legacy grants through the FOX Forward and FOX Sports Gamechanger Fund initiatives highlight the Company's commitment to the New Orleans community and the legacy Super Bowl LIX on FOX leaves behind in Louisiana.
