New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas made a $20,000 donation that will pay off in a much bigger way.

According to a news release issued by his agency, Athletes First, Thomas' $20,000 donation to the national nonprofit organization RIP Medical Debt will relieve more than $2 million in outstanding medical debts for people struggling to make payments in the Greater New Orleans Area.

"I'm honored to support my community in this way and make an impact in the city that's been so welcoming to me," Thomas said in the news release. "I hope these families get a little relief in knowing their medical bills have been taken care of during these very difficult times in our country."

His donation will affect 1,025 people.

3 days is enough time passed.

Seems there are a lot of people throwing them selves on the 'poor character' bandwagon over a single tweet but when this man commits a clear character defining act they go silent.

This is all I need to know of his character.
