PHILADELPHIA, PA (CBS) — It’s often too easy. They come, because it bears their name, and it makes them look good. They may stay for possibly five, or 10 minutes, take a few photo ops to enhance their brand more and out the backdoor they go.

That’s what a lot of sports stars do.

It’s not, however, what Eagles’ safety Malcolm Jenkins does.

Before a full ballroom on Monday at the Fraternal Order of Police, Lodge 5 in North Philadelphia, Jenkins and his foundation, The Malcolm Jenkins Foundation, fed over 130 needy families with the ‘Holiday Dinner Basket Surprise.’ They handed out packaged canned goods and turkeys to homeless shelters and charitable organizations throughout the Delaware Valley area.

And right in the middle of it, from start to finish, carrying out the boxes to waiting cars and SUVs, and making sure everyone’s needs were met was Jenkins.

You didn’t have it look too far where Jenkins gets the gift of giving—from his mother, Gwendolyn V. Jenkins, the President of the Malcolm Jenkins Foundation.
