Former NFL QB and Pro Bowl MVP

The Shack Harris & Doug Williams Foundation is a 501(c) 3 non-profit, tax-exempt organization dedicated to creating opportunities for economically disadvantaged youth.
 
Founded in 2005 by Grambling State University Tigers and NFL quarterback pioneers Pro Bowl MVP James "Shack" Harris and Super Bowl MVP Doug Williams, the Foundation provides grants for after-school initiatives, leadership development, mentoring programs and minority higher education assistance.
 
Doug Williams was the first black quarterback to start in a Super Bowl, setting several Super Bowl passing records and being named the game's Most Valuable Player.  He is now a player personnel executive with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
 
James "Shack" Harris was the first black quarterback to lead a team to playoffs. He was the first to be a Pro Bowl quarterback and Pro Bowl MVP. In May 2003, Sports Illustrated named him the 36th most influential minority person in sports.  Shack most recently was Vice President for Player Personnel with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
