Today is more proof that Minnesota Vikings fans are some of the best in all of football. The More Than Words campaign launched in early June and we have some great news: the $10,000 goal has been reached. Our donation total currently sits at $11,020. Through the generous donations of fans and those at Fan HQ, the Mike Zimmer Foundation will help so many youth in the local community. The Zimmer family is very grateful for your support of the foundation. It allows them to continue the legacy of Vikki Zimmer. Mike Zimmer wants to impact the community that has supported him during his time in Minnesota. Not to mention, it allows him to continue the spirit of his family for years to come. You can read more about the impact of this foundation and how it embodies the family of Mike Zimmer, by clicking this link. 

This is exciting news, but the campaign is far from over. We are accepting donations until August 9th! Donations are being accepted on the More Than Words donation landing page over on Vikings Territory. Don't forget, you could still win one of our giveaways. Each $10 donated enters you once into the drawing for the following prizes:

- Autographed Adrian Peterson Jersey
- Two club level tickets to the November 20th game against Arizona at U.S. Bank Stadium
- A chance to meet Mike Zimmer in person and receive a game ball signed by Coach himself
- All four of the Foundation's T-Shirt designs ($25 value each)
- A game ball signed by Anthony Barr

At the same time, you can help so many kids in the local community achieve their dreams.

Another way you can donate is by purchasing a More Than Words t-shirt on Amazon. All of the profits from sales will go to the Mike Zimmer Foundation, courtesy of Vikings Territory!

You can purchase two different versions for $19.99 and $21.99, respectively. This is an excellent way to help the Mike Zimmer Foundation and to show your More Than Words pride.

Again, thank you to all the fantastic Vikings fans for your support of this campaign. We couldn't make an impact without your encouragement and donations. It is time to keep promoting this cause to raise more money for the Mike Zimmer Foundation.
