About Us

Inspired by his sister Alecia, a single mother doing her best to raise her young son, NFL All-Pro Safety Roy Williams launched The Roy Williams Safety Net Foundation in July 2004 to help ensure that low to moderate-income single mothers receive support, guidance, and assistance in an effort to enhance their quality of life.

"My sister, Alecia, is a single mother raising my nephew — they have been my inspiration in starting the foundation to help this group of challenged women," said Roy. "I've seen first-hand the many challenges she and other women like her with children face on a daily basis. I want to do what I can to provide a safety net to help catch those families who are struggling."

In just a few short years since its inception, The Roy Williams Safety Net Foundation has established itself as a non-profit organization committed to the community, and has touched the lives of over 300 single mothers and their families.
