SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS2019 MEDIA GUIDE

• As part of the 49ers annual Thanksgiving celebrations, Taylor and his teammates visited Cityteam San Jose to serve a holiday feast to over 300 people in need. Guests enjoyed turkey along with all of the usual holiday sides, while getting to know the 49ers.

• In April of 2018, Taylor and his teammates attended the eighth annual Prom at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital San Francisco in Mission Bay, with more than 200 teen patients and their friends. Patients and 49ers players enjoyed a fun-filled “Vintage Circus” prom with photo booths, music, dancing, dining and more. This special evening allowed patients to participate in a milestone that they may miss as a result of sickness.

• During the 2019 offsea-son, members of the 49ers took park in the Second Annual Picnic on the Field, located on the Levi’s Sta-dium field. Taylor and his teammates spent the day taking pictures with fans, who enjoyed music, food and games in support of the 49ers Foundation. The foundation, in conjunction with NFL Huddle for 100, partnered with Amazon to fill 1,000 backpacks full of school supplies. Fans and players joined together to assemble the packs, which were distrib-uted throughout the community to children in need.

GOLDMINE (CONTINUED)• Taylor and his teammates joined Levi’s in support of breast, colon

and pediatric cancer warriors at the Crucial Catch Fashion Show presented by Dignity Health on October 2, 2018. 49ers players and cancer warriors took to the runway to show off their attire and share their stories of strength and courage with the audience.

• The 49ers joined forces with Martha’s Kitchen of San Jose as part of their Community Tuesday kickoff event on September 11, 2018. Taylor and teammates took part in the event by serving dinner to nearly 200 residents in need, refilling beverages and bussing tables. Both the 49ers and Levi’s Stadium partner with Martha’s Kitchen throughout the year by donating excess food after stadi-um events. Martha’s Kitchen’s mission is to “feed the hungry with dignity, no questions asked, no judgements made.”

• During all Week 13 games in 2017, NFL players had the chance to share the causes that are important to them as part of the NFL’s My Cause, My Cleats campaign. The initiative was a culmination of collaborative work between the NFL and players across the league. “The USO strengthens America’s military service mem-bers by keeping them connected to family, home and country, throughout their service to the nation,” said Taylor.
