Robert Kraft Makes Surprise Donation at Fundraiser for Motorcyclists Killed in New Hampshire Crash
By Parker White
Back on June 21, there was a severe crash in Randolph, New Hampshire that killed seven members of the Jarheads Motorcycle Club.
On Saturday, the Jarheads MC held a memorial outside of Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots, to honor the fallen. It just so happens that Pats owner Robert Kraft was in attendance where he made a very generous $100,000 donations to the group's fundraising effort to help the families of those who were injured and killed.

“We are all Patriots, and you are the true patriots,” Kraft said to the cheering crowd.
The Jarheads MC have a fundraiser going on and the goal is to reach $700,000 that will help with medical costs and things of that nature for the families. They've surpassed $550,000 already, and in addition to his initial donation, Kraft announced that he'd pay the difference in what is needed to reach their donation goal.

It's been a rough year for Kraft, as he's still caught up in this prostitution case that at the very least has impacted his reputation. However, it's great to see that he's using his wealth to help those in need.
