DREXEL HILL, PA — The roar of the crowd, the thrill of the game, and the timeless legacy of the Philadelphia Eagles come together this November in a unique opportunity for fans. CASA Youth Advocates of Delaware & Chester Counties is offering a chance to own an extraordinary piece of Eagles history while supporting a vital cause. As part of their 2024 Gala, the nonprofit is auctioning an iconic Mitchell & Ness Eagles jacket, signed by nearly two dozen players, including some of the team’s most revered stars.
For passionate Eagles fans, this isn’t just memorabilia—it’s a tangible piece of the team’s storied past and present. The jacket bears the signatures of Jalen Hurts, Brandon Graham, AJ Brown, DeVonta Smith, and even the legendary Eagles Head of Security, Dom “Big Dom” DiSandro. Collectively representing over 75 years of Eagles roster experience, this jacket is a testament to the legacy and brotherhood that defines the franchise.
Leigh Anne McKelvey, Executive Director of CASA, encapsulates the significance of this offering: “This is an amazing opportunity to own a piece of Philadelphia Eagles history. Not only will the winner receive a unique piece of Eagles memorabilia, but these funds will help us to continue to support the children and youth who come to CASA, many of whom look up to these Eagles players as superheroes.”
The online auction launched on November 4 and extends until the night of the Gala on November 22. This event promises not just a celebration of community spirit but also a chance to contribute to a cause that aids foster children across Chester and Delaware Counties. CASA Youth Advocates provides essential support to abused and neglected children within the welfare system, empowering them with resources and advocacy.
The Gala, an event blending philanthropy and festivity, will feature a silent auction with an array of enticing items. Besides the coveted Eagles jacket, attendees and participants can bid on luxurious week-long stays at shore homes in Sea Isle, New Jersey, and Cape Cod, Massachusetts, along with exclusive golf outings at prestigious locations like Union League Liberty Hill and the Philadelphia Country Club.
For Eagles enthusiasts, this auction is more than an opportunity—it’s a call to action to support a noble cause while indulging their passion for the game. Bidders need not be present at the Gala to win, making it accessible to fans near and far.
In a city where sports are woven into the cultural fabric, this auction encapsulates the unyielding spirit of Philadelphia—one that celebrates triumphs on the field and extends that victory into the community. As CASA Youth Advocates continues its mission, the support and generosity of Eagles fans can make a profound difference, turning passion for the game into a force for good.
The Philadelphia Eagles have long symbolized resilience and unity; now, fans have a chance to embrace that legacy in a meaningful way. Whether you’re a collector, a devoted fan, or someone passionate about making a difference, this auction is your moment to shine. Let the bidding begin, and may the spirit of “Go Birds!” resonate far beyond the gridiron.
