Gallery / Team Polamalu travels to Samoa to give back

With the help of NIKE, Troy Polamalu made a huge donation of football equipment to the Department of Education today. 50 uniforms were donated for each high school, which included all the fittings, shoes, socks, cleats, belts, shirts and more. NIKE Sports Marketing Manager Mr. Forrest Sherman said the donation was valued at $140,000. Polamalu paid for all the NIKE brand wares and NIKE assisted in the cost and shipment.

“I would like to thank everyone for the invitation and opportunity to come here, I have been here a couple of times myself. There are 1,500 NFL players and 1,200 of them are Nike athletes. There are only a few of these 1,200 players that Nike asks more of, like players such as Troy Polamalu,” Sherman said, “and it is guys like him, that we are honored to be associated with. Troy Polamalu wanted to make sure that every kid and every player had the highest quality of equipment, to compete at the highest level.”

“Along with Brand Athletics we are donating one full jersey, pants, t-shirt, belt, shorts, socks, and a pair of cleats, and a girdle, which one of the most protected piece of equipment the kids wear underneath their pants to protect them from injuries, every player will receive this equipment, as far as the helmet and shoulder pads go, that will be brought over next spring,” he added.

A video message from Polamalu was shown, in which the Steelers star spoke to the kids who will be using the football gear.

“You have to remember who you are representing, this is not just about you. You are representing your Samoan heritage, and I am very happy to be representing Nike, and I want to thank them,” Polamalu said. “And I can’t wait to get there to American Samoa on June 11 of 2010.”

Alex Holmes, Troy’s brother-in-law, touched on some things about Troy, his faith in God, and commitment to his family.

“Hopefully we can get back to work with other sports, and with the girls, like in track and field and other sports with in a few years, God bless you all and thank you all for hosting us,” said Miletich, who runs Polamalu’s family office.

The jerseys along with hats and the football pants were presented to representatives of each high school, who posed in their new jerseys, along with Director of Education Dr. Claire T. Poumele and all head coaches from each high school football team.

Lt. Governor Faoa Aitofele Sunia and DOE Director Taimalelagi Dr. Claire Poumele were on hand today to thank representatives of Polamalu and NIKE for the donation.

Here are a couple of videos from the trip:

      hey Troy, you’re so incredibly giving and you’re a good Christian guy and you care about others. You are soooo talented and you’re focused even off the field!:)You’re my most favorite football player EVER! I hope your faith as a Christian stays strong over the years!My dad tells me their’s a differnece betweena good player and a great player… a good player is someone who has good skills but is selfish and doesn’t care about their team. A great player is someone who hs good skills, is focused, and cares about their team and thinks about others and they’ve one at least some kind of champioship…..YOU’RE A GREAT PLAYER!:)KEEP BEING THE GIVING, FOCUSED, CHRIST-LIKE, AND LOYAL PERSON YOU ARE!:)

      You’re amazing :) I’m proud to be Samoan although just 10% of me is from there :) You’re my role model and everyone I know says my hair is just like yours, and I’m proud of that :) I’m a big fan, from Oregon and it’s great to know that at least one islander knows what he’s doing with his life, and making changes in this world. Someday, I wish to do so as well, and to give back to my islands of Tonga as well as Samoa.
      Keep it up Uso.

      Praise God for a man like you and the grace God gives us each day. I am proud to be a Steeler fan because of players like you who embrace their faith and are not afraid to show it. My church makes trips twice a year to Samoa and I hope one day to afford to send my daughter to share our faith. God is great. Keep up the good work both on the field and off. Love you brother.

    What a very generous donation! Fa’afetai tele lava to all those who took part in helping out American Samoa. NIKE, Mr. Foresst Sherman, George Malauulu, Team Polamalu and the crew, and especially Mr. Troy Polamalu and family. I know it must have taken a lot of time and hard work to get this together. God will bless you all abundantly the way you have done to these kids! I see them around the island and are wearing them proud! (btw, love the uniforms your guys are wearing, with the black ie faitaga’s…looking good!) We hope your team enjoyed their short stay here as much as we enjoyed having them here! Giving back feels so good! It’s all for the kids! God is good! ALL THE TIME!

    Hi Troy,
    First off…Many Blessings to you and your family and your precious new baby!!
    Our family is of course big Steelers fans!! Although my 16yr old daughter forbids anyone else in the family to have your jersey!! Only she can wear your numbers!! Lol…teenagers….just wait! :)
    Just have to say….you were born in Garden Grove and we attend church in Garden Grove. (Our tiny connection) Oh also, I’ve read that you are well educated in early Christianity. My husband is working on his Masters of Divinity with an emphasis on Biblical Studies at Azusa Pacific University. His hearts desire is to one day teach there and to write a book on Jesus and The Poor. What we believe this world and today’s churches sadly tend to overlook or half heartedly address while to Jesus they were most important! Anyway, If you’re ever in town and want to talk and discuss…he would surely make himself available!!! Hey…never know! :)
    Well, we watched the 60 Minutes episode on American Samoa and I must say that I greatly admire you and your culture and the people of American Samoa. The heart of your people is immeasurable. I can clearly see that it is not the genetic strength you are born with but the heart and HUMILITY and spirituality of your people that drives you to succeed. If only all of our children possessed that…what an awesome life they would live and blessings to those around them!! I pray you continue to stand strong in your faith and continue to be the the awesome role model that you are!
    May God Bless you always!! The Torrez Family
    p.s. I have now told my children they are only allowed to marry someone of Samoan decent!! Even though we are not! :) I’m on a mission now!!! lol!! Oh and LOOOOVE the hair!!

    Troy you are an amazing man. You represent your culture and your team with much dignity. Everyone should live by your example. Two years ago, my stepson and his wife were living at Children’s Hospital in Pittsburgh with their baby girl Isis. She had leukemia. You came to visit and I have your picture with her on my desk, where it will remain as long as I’m on this earth. It meant a great deal to them as parents and to me, that you take the time to give back to your Pittsburgh community also. There aren’t enough words to say how grateful we are for that time you spent there. She is with God now, and helping you on the field and us in our hearts. Thank you and God Bless you and your family in all you do.

Security and the gentle Father brought her to meet you and your beautiful wife, she was in awe that you would do such a thing for her. I know she will never forget that day, nor I.

    I am a friend of a Grandmother with a grandson with cancer in Pgh. Troy visited him in his hospital room the day after his new son was born; Brent was sleeping so Troy took the time to come back later, visit with him, sign autographs. I believe he does this on a regular basis. Anyone who lives in Pgh. and is a Steeler fan is not surprised by these acts. Pgh. is so lucky to have him, not just as a great, future HOF player, but a great, caring, human being.

    Fa’aSamoa is not just a phrase we practiced in our Samoan lives to identify who we are. It is a way of life that every samoan is nurished from the day he/she was born until the day we die. It is a code of honor every samoan live by on a daily basis. It is the very reason why Troy came back to his people, most of whom he doesn’t know, and give back because his parents raised him the fa’asamoa way. God bless you Troy and many more successful years with the Steelers.

    Troy,

    As a lifelong sportsfan, I haven’t admired an athlete as much as I do you. You’re a great football player, but much more than that, you’re a great human being. I was the Director of Christian Education and Youth Ministries for 16 years at a Christian church, and almost all of the youth I worked with had a love, if not passion, for a sport, or sports in general. It is difficult for youth to value their faith as much as sports, especially in our society. But with men like you, I could always point to an example of what a man should be like… professional, humble, caring, strong, filled with integrity, constantly striving to do their best, and loving. It is with this in mind that I want to thank you for all you do both on, and especially off the field. I must be honest and tell you I’m a lifelong Eagles fan, lol, but the Steelers are second in my heart because of you. The Steelers are my oldest son’s favorite team, and that’s saying a lot in an Eagles household ;-) . I wish you much success in your life, career, and upcoming trip to Samoa. I’m sure it will be a wonderful journey and will touch the hearts of all those involved. If there’s anything I can do for you, you’ve already helped me greatly without having met me, please let me know. All the best,

    Pax et Agape,

    Steve

    I have two nephews and we’re involved in various charitable organizations to help the poor, needy & our active duty military and veterans. It is people like you, Hines Ward, and a few others that make me so happy to have my nephews be Steelers fans and to have role models who contribute so much on and, more importantly, off the field.

If anyone can donate us any fotball equipment or offer to us cheap football equipment, we’ll buy it. Any kind of help will be great. We will thank you for any help!
