htownbro Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Texans co-founder and senior chairperson Janice McNair is making one of the largest donations ever by an NFL owner to a community project. McNair is donating $5.45 million to Pro-Vision Inc in the Sunnyside community. The funds will be utilized to build housing for low-income community members, a football field on the campus and a track facility to be named after the McNair family as well as a multi-purpose building. An urban farm and aquaponics initiative in the community will be tripled in size and is intended to provide healthy food for the campus along with vocational jobs for the community and income selling produce to local businesses. This is great for this community south of Loop 610 and East of 288. https://www.chron.com/sports/texans/article/Texans-Janice-McNair-donating-5-million-Pro-Vision-14299100.php#photo-18065311 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmac Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 This is a great addition to that area. Very happy to see someone step up and fund it. Hopefully it spurs other wealthy folks to make similar investments around town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
