Russell Wilson and Ciara keep turning their star power into something legitimately meaningful. The formidable duo is consistently working against cancer. In 2024, with 2 million Americans facing a cancer diagnosis, the Giants QB and his singer wife Ciara made the big decision to move for them. Wilson who recently inked the 1-year, $10,500,000 contract with the Giants, and his American singer Ciara both raised the massive 7-figure fund at the V Foundations event last night. Doesn’t it reflect their dedication to a good cause? Well, the evening was really electrifying, filled with full of energy. And, the real showstopper was the dedicated board members of the V Foundation. Hence, the Grammy Award-winning singer could not hide her emotions.

Taking to her official X account, the ‘Level Up’ singer exhibited her true feelings. “Such a blessing!,” she wrote. “Nothing better than spending nights like this together, and knowing that everyone in the room was all in together!” she mentioned further.

Originally, the 10-time Pro Bowler QB shared glimpses of the vibrant evening, penning a touching note.  

“So Grateful! $3 Million Raised last night with this beautiful lady @Ciara,” Wilson, 36, mentioned. The Super Bowl Champ also shed light on the purpose of this biggest event, while mentioning both of his philanthropic foundations. “Our @WhyNotYouFDN & @TheVFoundation came together this weekend for “Victory over Cancer!” #WhyNotYou,” he noted.

This move really showcased the dynamic duo’s good impact on society, as they are making a difference to fight against cancer with their charitable efforts.

Clearly, the funds raised will support multiple research teams, providing an additional three to four years of funding for each project to pursue revolutionary cancer research. Interestingly, the V Foundation, which was launched back in 1993, has raised over $168 million for cancer research through its wine country initiatives over the last 25 years. Since its founding, the Foundation has sponsored advanced research in an effort to accomplish “Victory Over Cancer.
