Fashion designer Kiya Tomlin, wife of Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin, is using her business to make and donate medical masks to help coronavirus relief.

Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick has started a COVID-19 relief fund aimed at helping minority communities, who have been hard hit by the pandemic.

Kaepernick has made an initial donation of $100,000.

“Black and brown communities are being disproportionately devastated by COVID-19 because of hundreds of years of structural racism,” Kaepernick said in a social media post, via The Associated Press.

Kaepernick, 32, last played in the NFL in 2016.
