**BREAKING NEWS: Georgia Bulldogs Star Gunner Stockton Donates \$5 Million to Build Homeless Support Centers in Hometown**
In an extraordinary act of generosity, Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Gunner Stockton has pledged his entire \$5 million in recent earnings from games and sponsorships to help combat homelessness in his hometown of Tiger, Georgia.
At an emotional press conference held earlier today, Stockton announced that the donation will fund the construction of a series of homeless support centers aimed at providing shelter, resources, and long-term housing solutions for those in need. The initiative will include 150 permanent apartment units and 300 emergency shelter beds, significantly expanding support for vulnerable residents in the region.
“I’ve witnessed far too many people back home struggling to survive cold nights without a roof over their heads,” Stockton said, fighting back tears. “I promised myself that if I ever had the chance, I would step up and take action. No one deserves to sleep outside in that kind of cold.”
The new facilities will not only offer safe places to sleep but will also include access to job training programs, mental health services, and food assistance. Construction is set to begin within the next few months, with community leaders and nonprofits already on board to help implement and sustain the program.
Local officials have praised Stockton’s selfless gesture, calling it a turning point for the rural North Georgia town. “Gunner’s commitment is more than a donation—it’s a message of hope,” said Mayor Linda Parker. “This is what real leadership looks like.”
Fans and fellow athletes across the country have also taken to social media to applaud Stockton’s decision, with many calling it one of the most impactful philanthropic acts by a college athlete in recent memory.
Stockton’s initiative stands as a powerful reminder of the difference one person can make when they choose compassion over comfort.
