BEATHARD’S GAME-BY-GAME

GOLDMINE (CONTINUED)• In November of 2019, the

49ers teamed up with Mar-tha’s Kitchen of San Jose to serve Thanksgiving din-ner to over 300 people in need. Members of the team served food, bussed tables and refilled beverages. The team also provided toilet-ries and giveaways to all those in attendance.

• The 49ers worked along-side the humanitarian-relief organization Convoy of Hope in December of 2018, and hosted 1,500 guests in-need from Bay Area nonprofits and schools at Levi’s® Stadium for a free holiday resource fair. Beathard and his 49ers teammates distributed groceries, toys, books, shoes and other holiday offerings to the guests. The attendees also received haircuts, utilized health resources and took family portraits or professional headshots. Convoy of Hope is a nonprofit organiza-tion that directs children’s feeding initiatives, hosts community outreach programs and provides disaster response resources to those in need in the Bay Area and throughout the world.

• Beathard and his teammates joined Levi’s in support of breast, colon and pediatric cancer warriors at the Crucial Catch Fashion Show present-ed by Dignity Health in Octo-ber of 2018 after posing for a photoshoot. 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.

• During his time at Iowa, Beath-ard earned the nickname “Sunshine” from Hawkeye fans because his long, flowing hair resembled the character with the same nick-name from the football movie “Remember The Titans.” In 2015, he cut off his hair and donated it to Wigs For Kids, a non-profit orga-nization that makes wigs to support children who have lost their hair due to medical issues at no cost to children or their families.

• As part of the 49ers annual Thanksgiving celebrations, Beathard and his teammates visited Cityteam San Jose to serve a holiday feast to over 300 people in need in 2017. Guests enjoyed turkey along with all of the usual holiday sides, while getting to know the 49ers.

• The 49ers joined forces with Martha’s Kitchen of San Jose as part of their Community Tues-day kickoff event in September of 2018. Beathard and team-mates took part in the event by serving dinner to nearly 200 residents in need, refilling bev-erages and bussing tables. Both the 49ers and Levi’s Stadium partner with Martha’s Kitchen throughout the year by donating excess food after stadium events. Martha’s Kitchen’s mission is to “feed the hungry with dig-nity, no questions asked, no judgements made.”

• Beathard and his teammates surprised guests of the CityTeam Men’s Program and House of Grace in November of 2018, at Levi’s Stadium. The group believed they were just taking a tour of the stadium, but they were in fact joining the 49ers players for a night full of exciting events. The guests received a makeover and hair-cut, selected a new outfit from Dockers, snapped a new headshot and then shared a Thanksgiving dinner with the 49ers players.

• In August of 2016, Beathard joined his younger brother, singer/songwriter Tucker Beathard, on stage at the first-ever concert at Iowa’s Kinnick Stadium. Tucker, one of country music’s rising stars, saw his song “Rock On” become a top-10 hit on Billboard’s country chart. While performing a new track called “I’ll Take On The World With You,” which he co-wrote about the bond between he and his siblings, Tucker brought his older brother and former childhood bandmate onto the stage for a moment the two will never forget. “Ever since C.J. started at Iowa, playing a show at Kinnick Stadium was one of those unreachable dreams that you never think will actually come true,” said Tucker. “Our whole fam-ily lives for sports and music…it’s what bonds us together going back to my grandpa and his years in the NFL. It was awesome to be invited to the Back Porch Revival and to see those two worlds collide in front of a stadium full of people. I’ll never forget it!”

• Beathard became a father in De-cember of 2016, just months before being selected in the 3rd round by San Francisco. A year later, he cele-brated his daughter Lyla’s first birth-day at the conclusion of his rookie season. Beathard considers his daughter’s birth one of the greatest and proudest moments of his life. “The love I have experienced for her over this past year is something I never knew was possible,” Beath-ard said. “I am thankful for all of the joy she brings to my life.”
