Congratulations are in order for our A Fair Shot program that recently won a PRWeek Purpose Award for Best Use of Celebrity and/or Influencers. A Fair Shot was created to raise awareness of the name, image, likeness (NIL) pay disparity between female college athletes and their male counterparts. Since its start in 2022, the program has helped level the playing field by awarding more than $1M in NIL sponsorships to female athletes along with tax help and financial education resources. Thanks to our athlete partners and collective team for continuing to spread the word about this important issue in such a dynamic and meaningful way. Stay tuned for more on the ways we’re leaning into our Purpose: to provide help and inspire confidence in our clients and communities everywhere. #AFairShot #HRBlock #NIL #PurposeAwards
