Coach Cochran and I are asking you to reach out to your local high school teams via the head coach, athletic director, booster club leader or school principal

Share the post below with them and ask them to have their team officially sign up 

We will follow up with them to create a logo for social and the media 

There are purple items available on the store for parents (or anyone) to buy their individual player an item or they can purchase enough to outfit their entire football team

This has the potential to reach millions of Americans under the Friday Night Lights this September

 

How You Can Help:

✅ SIGN UP YOUR TEAM (Click here to join the AARA Purple Project as a conference, a league, a team, an individual coach or student athlete, or a family member)

✅ PURPLE GEAR FOR A PURPOSE:

The AARA Purple Project will work with sports manufacturers, sports teams, booster clubs, Corporate America, educational institutions, and other entities to pay for outfitting players and coaches in purple in September, National Recovery Month.

Just as pink is recognized across America, every October, as support for those impacted by breast cancer, the AARA Purple Project will help save lives, restore families, and strengthen communities by raising awareness in purple.

• • Parents, fans & supporters can purchase purple items for their player or the whole team.

• • Proceeds support addiction recovery awareness & outreach.

✅ SPREAD THE WORD:We’ll follow up to create custom logos for your team’s social media & media coverage.

• • Use #EndTheWhisper to help eliminate the stigma around addiction.

 

Why It Matters:

Addiction affects millions of families—this is a chance to unite communities, save lives, and show that recovery is possible. Together, we can make purple a national symbol of hope, support, and strength.
