Patriots Tight End Hunter Henry hosted his annual 'Freedom to Play' ping pong tournament at SPIN Boston on Monday, Oct. 12, 2026. The event raised money and awareness for the International Justice Mission, which works to help end slavery and human trafficking around the world.

As part of the Patriots Foundation's month-long focus on healthcare and the NFL's Crucial Catch Campaign, 15 cancer patients and survivors currently receiving treatment at Mass General Hospital, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and surrounding areas were invited to Gillette Stadium for a Day of Pampering on Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2026.

The Patriots Foundation, joined by player Julian Hill, visited Bridge Over Troubled Waters, a Boston-based non-profit that provides services and support to youth experiencing homelessness, as well as runaway and at-risk youth. During the visit, the group prepared and served a hot meal while engaging with the youth in meaningful conversation.

The Patriots welcomed girls flag football athletes to Gillette Stadium for the Patriots NFL FLAG College Showcase, providing participants with an opportunity to compete, showcase their talents, and engage with college coaches from across the country.
