Help Us Achieve Our Goals!
We are a service organization of former professional football, baseball, basketball, hockey, Olympians and other sports enthusiasts. These individuals voluntarily support youth charities. We also support the charities of other former sports players. Each year we sponsor a celebrity non-profit golf tournament to help fund tuition for deserving, graduating high school seniors. We are supported by the NFLPA Atlanta Chapter.
The Chapter was organized to bring together former professional football payers that lived in the Metro Atlanta area to create a pride and presence in the community and youth charities. We are supported by the NFLPA Metro Atlanta Former Players Chapter in our endeavor to positively impact our youth through community involvement.
In 1996 the Professional Athletes Foundation (PAF) established a student scholarship program designed to provide financial assistance to graduating male and female student athletes in the Metro Atlanta area. The Gene Upshaw Professional Athletes Foundation (GUPAF) was established as a student scholarship program. Georgia Pro Player (GPP) received its 501c3 nonprofit status in 2008 being established to support GUPAF and to assist the various charities of our former players in the metro Atlanta area.
We are celebrating our 29th annual GPP Celebrity Golf Tournament non-profit event to help fund our youth scholarship initiative.
