Former Colts head coach still leaves legacy in Indy – Indianapolis News | Indiana Weather | Indiana Traffic

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Former Colts head coach Frank Reich returned to Indianapolis on Monday for his nonprofit fundraising event.

Reich and his wife Linda founded kNot Today in 2019. kNot Today is a nonprofit organization that helps protect children from sexual abuse, exploitation, and trafficking. kNot Today partners with schools and other organizations to create safe environments for children.

The fundraiser was the second annual “Drive for the Next Generation” at TopGolf.

Colts players Kenny Moore II, Quenton Nelson, Nick Cross, Tyquan Lewis, Grover Stewart and many more were on hand to cheer them on.

The fundraiser raised more than $125,000.

“We are calling on all Hoosiers to unite in this fight,” said Frank Reich in a press release. “Your participation in our Topgolf fundraiser directly contributes to the expansion of our prevention education programs and
ultimately to create a safer Indiana for our children.”

“Every child we reach represents a life potentially saved from the trauma of abuse,” Linda Reich said in a press release. “Our recent success story of a fourth-grader courageously professing her innocence after receiving kNot Today-funded education at school, leading to the arrest of her abuser, underscores the critical importance of this work. By focusing on every child, we will protect the many.”

Since its founding, kNot Today has awarded over $1 million in grants since 2020 to organizations working to prevent and heal people affected by child sexual abuse.

kNot Today also led a coalition of more than 30 organizations in Indiana that impacted more than 300,000 students in 2022-2023.
