Los Angeles Rams' quarterback Matt Stafford and his wife, Kelly, have always looked to make an impact in any community they're apart of.

On Wednesday, the Super Bowl winning signal caller made a surprise donation to a nearby high school football team for the upcoming 2025 season.

Stafford surprised CIF-SS Division 13 champion Pasadena High School by announcing that they will be gifting new uniforms to the football program.

The Pasadena area was hit hard by Southern California wildfires, which killed at least 29 people. The fires forced more than 200,000 residents to evacuate from their homes, and destroyed more than 18,000 structures.

Stafford is first seen in the video captured by LA Daily News' Adam Grosbard, being announced to the program at the banquet. The Rams' quarterback then spoke about the recent wildfires that had ravaged the area and announced to the room that he and his wife would be gifting new uniforms to the Bulldogs, sparking a loud cheer all across from the players.

"I'm happy to be apart of y'alls community," Stafford said in his short speech to Pasadena's football team.

The Bulldogs won their first CIF-SS Division 13 Title since 1933 in a thrilling 21-17 victory over Gahr.
