MEDIA ADVISORY
LaDainian Will Treat Village Teens to Sunday’s Game, Dinner

SAN DIEGO – LaDainian Tomlinson of the San Diego Chargers has invited 20 teenagers from St. Vincent de Paul Village’s Toussaint Teen Center to his team’s Sunday, November 23 match-up against the Cincinnati Bengals. The youngsters and three chaperones will gather outside Qualcomm Stadium’s Gate A at 12 p.m. where they will receive their tickets and be escorted to their seats.

After the game, the star running back will join and treat the teens to dinner at Dave & Busters, located at 2931 Camino Del Rio North.

Father Joe Carroll, president of St. Vincent’s, says he is heartened by Tomlinson’s generosity and compassion for underprivileged youngsters.

" This isn’t the first time LaDainian has treated our kids to a game and dinner," he says. "He doesn’t do it for the publicity … he truly wants to make a positive difference in the lives of these kids, and he definitely has achieved that."

Media inquiries will be taken at (619) 525-1608.
