RGIII Expecting First Child With Wife
Robert Griffin III celebrated his 25th birthday by letting the world know that he and his wife are expecting their first child.
Griffin, the 24-year-old Christian QB for the Washington Redskins, decided to tweet an image of himself kissing his pregnant wife, Rebecca Griffin's, slightly protruding belly to announce that they are expecting.
"BIG Thank You for making this Birthday a Special Day," Griffin tweeted. "This year's gift will change Our life forever!!!! #BoyOrGirl."
The pair got married in 2013 and although they have yet to announce when they're expecting their bundle of joy, they've already birthed a charity to help other families. The Griffins decided to start the new year by debuting a new website for their Family of 3 organization.
The Family of 3 organization website offers people a way to "become a member of the family and make a difference," and the Griffins described ways to do just that in a statement to The Christian Post.
"As we begin a New Year, we are filled with excitement as our mission to make a lasting, positive impact on the world is finally underway with the release of our new foundation website familyof3.org," the Griffins said in a statement. "When you visit the website, you will find that there are many ways that you can become a member of the Family, and make a difference. You can do this through getting official Family of 3 wristbands, bidding on one of our unique auction items, placing a flat donation, and/or by just spreading the word as far as you can via social media."
Griffin is calling for people to help his nonprofit organization in any way they can, explaining some of the initiatives that will be taking place in Family of 3.
"Our Family dreams big in all aspects of life, and this foundation is no different. We will be working together with Boys and Girls Clubs, the Bob Woodruff Foundation, and many other charitable organizations," the Griffins said in their statement. "However, there are countless others who don't have access to these resources and we want to be able to reach and help them as well. By providing direct support, access to networking, and education on the issues that they are facing, we hope to help current and future generations, from all walks of life achieve sustained success."
