- Aaron Rodgers and David Gruber partner for season three of itsAaron.com. This year Aaron and David are highlighting three amazing organizations who are doing big things for a lot of people. In this episode Aaron surprises four amazing kids who have lost their dads serving in the U.S. Military. Their mission is to help even more kids of fallen veterans attend Camp Hometown Heroes.
I want to say thank you Aaron for taking the time to meet my nieces. It looks like they had a lot of fun. Kylee may now become a football (Packers) fan! It brought tears of joy to my eyes. Thank you again!
Jamie Dampier thank you for the sacrifice your brother/relative made for the rest of us. He is a true hero
Im really for your familys loss. This was a really cool thing aaron rodgers did.
Jamie Dampier ... thank you and your family for your sacrifice!... I am sorry for your loss!
Thuy Myers yes aaron is a stand up guy need more people like him in this world for sure
Jamie Dampier Sorry for your families loss Jamie. This video also brought tears to my eyes and it increases my appreciation for Aaron and his caring. Makes it really hard to root against the guy.
Patriots fan here, but I always liked and respected Aaron Rodgers, more than any other QB we've faced. The guy is a class act. It's really nice to see him take the time of day to do something wonderful like this!
This is our QB. Love from Bay Area. MVP
That boy's reaction to seeing Rodgers was priceless. What a great video.
Im a former US Marine... Semper Fi to all my brothers and sisters.... Aaron you are truely an inspiration. I am absolutely amazed by everything you do on and off the field. This was heartbreaking and warming all the same. Thank you for all you do Aaron.
Chris Rodriguez it is us that thanks you and the many others who served. Stay up man
Thank you for your service! My nephew is a Marine and is carrying on my family's tradition of military service. God bless you and yours.
This Cowboys fan has nothing but respect for Aaron Rodgers. Hate that my team lost to him, but that's just a game. What he does off the field is amazing and deserves recognition.
Very well said!
BUT THAT WAS A FUCKIN CATCH THO!!! Lol
+toiletroom No
I just commented the same thing on another video. It reminds me of Roger Staubach.
We thank Aaron Rdgers for the support he has shown ro Butte County after the Camp Fire destroyed 95% of Paradise, California, November 8, 2018. Aaron grew up in Butte County, going to school in nearby Chico. (Pleadant Valley High School.) Chico and other areas were severely impacted as well by the influx of 57,000 homeless from Parafise.
We found the most therapeutic way to process the fire was getting together with church members and schoolmates who had gone through the same experience of loss of community, property, and the trauma of escaping by driving through flames on both sides of the roads.
Our beautiful 1,000+ capacity SDA church was completely destroyed by the fire, as were many others.
Our school (Paradise Adventist Academy) has met for 2 1/2 years at the Hooker Oaks Seventh-day Adventist Church crammed into every space on the church grounds including the stage on the Gym, Sabbath School church classrooms, and temporary modular classrooms.
The greatest support the kids have found was being with others who had gone through the same traumas. (We were back up and running school just after Thanksgiving, far ahead of most schools in the area.) Some families who left the area have returned because students elsewhere could not relate to the needs of their personal support base. No one who has not beennon this journey can totally understand the depth of loss our children have suffered. They are their own support team.
Covid hit hard by keeping them apart with social distancing and remote learning.
Paradise Adventist Academy is returned to a completely restored campus next August. Our campus was miraculously saved by firefighters God placed in the right place that night.
Damage to the Academy was completely restored through insurance money to better than new condition. One K-4 building burned, but we have excess classroom capacity for the next few years while that building is replaced.
We never dreamed that our students would have to endure such grief, but God is battle hardening and maturing them in ways that have amazed u and made us stronger.
We have a long road of recovery ahead, but we are blessed.
Pure Class Mr Rodgers. As a military brat and veteran who, fortunately did not have to experience the loss these kids have, I appreciate this incredible act of caring and kindness. for those of you who attribute these actions as a quest by Aaron to garner personal publicity, Get Real. The last thing he needs is more publicity, good or bad. The organization is getting the publicity and opportunity to educate us on some really great programs by showcasing Aaron. Such a wonderful human being and along with Larry Fitzgerald, is the class of the NFL.
As a Wisconsin vet I cannot honestly say that I admire any athlete or celebrity more than Aaron Rodgers. For who he is and what he does for kids is absolutely unbelievable.
(MP's girlfriend) A sincere thanks to people like Aaron. My dad was killed in service when I was six, and it left a hole in my heart that has never fully healed fifty years on. Aaron is a MVP on and on the field. Besides my admiration for his community service, he's also my favorite football player. I'm a Packers fan from back in the Bart Starr days.
I'm a Vikings fan but damn... Is someone cutting onions in here? Much respect.
The youngest of the three sisters, I think her name is Kylie is the definition of adorable and the young boy is remarkable and incredibly well spoken. This organization needs to make him their spokesperson.
Rick Barbera I'm her uncle she is a goofy kid but love her lol
Jamie Dampier LOL. I imagine she is a precocious kid. I am sure you know this but that is to be treasured. Take care of them.
@@diggs1979420 when was the last time you actually saw Kylee? Or either of those 3 girls? Been quite a few years (more than 7 & before that only a few times within about 5 years). Unfortunately, your brother paid the ultimate sacrifice, leaving those kids & his wife to live without him & you don't even bother trying to see or spend time with them! You have no idea what kind of amazing, beautiful young women they have become. But that's your loss. As for Aaron Rodgers... he is the DEFINITION of a TRUE ROLE MODEL. I'm proud to be a fan of his!
So this is what your life has come to?..... Truly sad LOL
@@diggs1979420 how is spending time with those beautiful young women, my nieces (family isn't always blood) sad? I'm grateful to have met them & to be able to celebrate Alexis & Starr's graduations with them. To spend Halloween with Starr going to Haunted Houses, taking Starr & Kylee out for impromptu lunches & shopping (which we just did yesterday btw). We may not be related by blood, but those 3 will ALWAYS be my nieces & always have a piece of my heart! You need grow up & stop being so selfish & arrogant. Then maybe you would've been a better uncle to them when they needed you the most! So do us all a favor & stop acting like the perfect uncle on social media... those of us who know you, know the truth!
Great football player, even better Man.
I lose it every time he introduces himself to those kids and their eyes light up. I'm proud to be a Packer fan and love to see Packers give their time, talents, and treasures to the people that need it most.
What an amazing man Aaron Rodgers is, to take time out of his life to spent a day with kids that are finding it so hard at this moment in time! Good bless them and him.
The 24 people that thumbs downed this video must be bears fans. You're so heartless for that. Shame on you. Much respect for you Aaron Rodgers! Go Pack Go.
He is a class act! Bless these children. Perfect example of leadership.
World class QB. Even better man! He's a California guy that has embraced Wisconsin. Thank you Aaron for giving so much of yourself.
God Bless Aaron Rodgers and David Gruber. We need more people to show appreciation to the military families. Precious children....so sad
Love it. One of my best friends sat next to Aaron at butte community college and always said he was a genuine guy.
As a diehard Vikings fan and Packer-hater, Aaron is the only person from the Packers that I'm a fan of and respect. Aaron is the best passer in the league and there's nothing anyone can say against that.
Aaron is a class act.
Just to watch this story and see the reaction on Dylan's face is priceless! Aaron keep up the good work on and off the field!
Another Pats' fan, and veteran. I already had enormous respect for Aaron as a football player, but I have to say, I REALLY like him a lot now as a person. I really want to hug all those kids.
Thanks Aaron for sharing your time with these four children who's Dads passed defending this nation. God bless.
Oh man, that is one of the sweetest things AR could do...so cool.
I am a Packers fan from Wales in the UK and have supported the Packers since 1981, when NFL first came to the UK. I chose the Packers because I took to heart that the Packers were a community, not just owned by some corporation or rich guy. Everything you hear about the Pack on and off the field can't help but move you emotionally, bike rides to practice, all the help via foundations, personal appearances, etc. I love the fact that ALL the players not just Aaron, get involved so much in the community. These guys are great role models to young kids. Even with all the privileges they have earned through their talent, they realise how lucky they are to play a game they love and be able to give that love back to their community. I am proud to be a Packers fan. GO PACK GO!
Aaron: Selfie Time?
Dylan: YES! Selfie Time...Let's Go! 😂😂😂
Aaron Rodgers is a stand up guy he's great on and off the field mvp of football and life keep up a rod god bless you in everything you do go pack go
such a class act...great cause
I love going to camp hometown heroes every year my dad died before I was born and Dylan you make me happy every day I see you
Amazing!! Thank you Aaron. Chad was a best friend to me, and his family is like my own. Dylan will definitely remember your time spent with him. Thanks!
He is such an amazing guy there should be more guys like him in this world just shows that even though he has alot of money he still has time to spend with others and doesnt let the fame get to his head such a down to earth guy
Love what Aaron does #GOAT
What a great guy on and off the field
It's awesome that Aaron does this. He's very giving of his time and he probably has no idea just how much of an impact he's making. I really hope he wins the Walter Payton Man of the Year award this year. I think Aaron just might find that more meaningful than winning the MVP.
Thank you for all you do for these kids Mr. Rodgers, it makes a difference to them to know that someone of your status cares as much as you do. :)
How can you not be a Packer fan now???
maybe because were not a bandwagon fan
This has nothing to do with football. It's a game and yes are children who have lost a guardian that gave the ultimate sacrifice for their fellow Americans regardless of race religion or gender. It's obvious aaron realized football is a small part of his life given the opportunity it has provided him to make a difference in someone else's.
Very easily. I have tears in my eyes over this. And I look forward to watching the Packers lose next season.
Aaron Rodgers is a hero and a role model on and off the field. Go pack Go!
i like this dylan kid, he's a good kid and will go far in life
Even if you are not a packers fan, how do you thumbs down this? Smh
Solid gold, the heart swells.
I hope Rodgers wins Man of the Year
I am an Aussie and a Packers fan. I started watching NFL when stationed in an outpost in South VietNam where we lost a lot of good people. Aaron Rodgers is a man with heart, this clearly comes through in his videos and caring for people. Always thought that many NFL players were egocentric, not this guy. As we say here , "Onya Mate" ( good on you mate !)
Good guy Aaron Rodgers
A Champion on the field and doing important work off it, God Bless Aaroon
Ur a great man and a great football player!!! I love the Packers and I love u!!! I hope one day to get to see the Packers play and meet u!!! I am ur biggest fan, don't miss a game on tv, I love Sundays!!! Thanks for everything u do!!! I may live in Oklahoma but my teams in Green Bay!!!!
A beautiful story filmed on a beautiful vintage Burger Motor Yacht. So nice to see this
hahahaha! what he did was awesome and that boys reaction was so cute! the girls on the other hand just looked like "well... ok." 😊😊😂😂
As a Cowboys fan I've booed this guy for years...but he is truly a class act and deserves much respect for the charitable work he does.
A very well spoken young man.
This is how fame should be used. No where in this video or any I have seen of Aaron show him doing anything but doting on others. He exemplifies what should be the best in all of us - a giving, loving spirit backed up with sincere actions.
That's my Quarterback Super Bowl MVP and Super Bowl Champion, Aaron Rodgers, go Packers ........
Nice man, good communication skills, has left a lasting memory with the children and myself
I love you Dylan see u at camp
looking through these comments,most people talk football. its not what this about,its about kids that lost a loved one. aaron is just bringing awareness to a wonderful org that helps them..as a combat vet thank you aaron and to all the kids .. god bless..and to everybody else give 20 bucks to it,because of them u can sit and see football on sunday and yell
SOO nice of Aaron to do this
Great QB better person!!
Great job, aaron. My brother is a soldier
Feel sorry for all the families that lose a loved one that serves. Thanks Aaron!
He is the best
Aaron a your mom said you told her that you didn't just want to be the best QB in the league, you wanted to be known as the best man in the league. It looks to me that you are well on your way! Love ya, 12, go Packers!
But he's cocky right? Hell nah he's a class act. How can someone hate em
Sorry Jammie for your loss
This is awesome!
Please do more Aaron
Five letters here just for everybody out there ... C L A S S
Haha Dylan's like "OMG!" And the girls are like "who tf is this"
great video :)
Holy crap. I know Dylan. He goes to my school. Oh my god.
How can a person dislike this video?
Damn it....my eyes keep leaking!
People that dislike this do not have a heart
Awesome!
try and hate on aaron rodgers. please go ahead and try
Protip: You can't.
You're right. Seahawk fanatic here, but I can't help but have mad respect Aaron every time I watch these videos. Stand up guy doing the right thing.
Yesenia Prin
+D.W.W. Sweetz other than the fact you're a Vikings fan I'm genuinely curious when did the packers cheat?
***** the only scandal I can find is of a player betting on a game in the 60s. I live in gb and its a well known fact that if you buy a share in the packers all it is is a plaque you hang on the wall lol. All shareholders in the packers understand it's not a bunch of Joe shmos gathering in the bar to make decisions on the organization
I'm glad they went fishing with Aaron Rodgers and not Jay Cutler. Nobody catches anything with Cutler in charge...well, except maybe opposing defenses.
LOL!
Fuckin LOL
or Jamesis Winston
Sadly there will be a lot more kids like this, given the ego's in the political arena worldwide. This Aaron dude is a good man.
This is why he's a front runner for Walter Payton Man of the Year award.
I have to say this! I was always told Aaron Rodgers was arrogant and didn't care about nothing but himself. A drama king. This could not be farther from the truth. This man is amazing for what he is doing. I will never again ore judge anyone. Mr Rodgers you have my ultimate respect as a man. This Browns fan will always respect Aaron the man.
Good luck with everything ( except when you play the Browns) lol, Good luck with everything you do.
Aaron us a cass act and there are no words to describe these children. God Bless Them...and its a bit dusty in here.
Go aaron i am your biggest fan can you respond back
MVP
I'd rather have a QB like this than a one whose a Superbowl robot.
how could 29 people not be moved by this ?? Mr.Rogers is using his celebrity for good . I've been a fan of #12 since he took over for #4 and didn't know about his non football life .
good on you #12 . . . .
Such a class guy. notice the little things. how when the little guy says 'football player for the packers'...aaron deflects right away back to the kids...because he knows thats what this is about. wish all of Hollywood could watch this so they can see what the opposite of narcissism is.
ok, what 2...people (ill keep it nice and clean) down voted this?!!?
Prolly ISIS motherfuckers.
I feel no need to keep it clean.
bears fans
***** I am a bears fan, but I respect Rodgers for what he does in and off the field. He is an amazing player and a great person overall.
Good bleeds
26 dislikes I wonder what humans dislike this
HATE THE PACKERS BUT LOVE AARON RODGERS
