RELIEF-4-BLUE FUND SET UP TO ASSIST FAMILY OF LSU FOOTBALL PLAYER ALFRED BLUE
BATON ROUGE – The
Relief-4-Blue fund has been established to assist the family of LSU
running back Alfred Blue who recently suffered a devastating loss when
a fire destroyed their home and all of their belongings.
Blue has three younger siblings ranging in ages from 4 to 15. His grandmother also lived in the home with his mom.
Under
NCAA rules, LSU is permitted to accept financial gifts and manage an
account to assist the Blue family. Those interested in assisting
Alfred Blue and his family can make contributions to the Tiger Athletic
Foundation by going to www.lsutaf.org.
Per NCAA rules, all
contributions of any kind must go through this fund. Donors need to be
aware that financial contributions to this fund are not tax deductible
and not eligible for LSU Priority Points.
Blue, a
sophomore from Boutte, La., is coming off his best game as a Tiger,
rushing for a team-high 72 yards and one touchdown in LSU’s 35-7 win
over Kentucky last week. Blue currently ranks third on the team with
148 yards rushing and three touchdowns.
