Legendary Super Bowl-winning coach writes about work with kids
(Live Action News) Tony Dungy, the legendary pro-life Super Bowl-winning coach, has opened up in a new book about his life fostering and adopting children. Dungy, along with his wife Lauren, wrote “Uncommon Influence: Saying Yes To A Purposeful Life” to help readers find the path God has meant for them to follow, and topics covered included their prolific journey to help children who need a family.
Tony and Lauren Dungy are parents to 11 children, eight of whom are adopted. But additionally, they have also fostered over 100 children throughout their 40 years of marriage.
“We love children; children are a passion, and we just believe that we could pour into them, and just help them, guide them through life,” Lauren told TODAY. “And we had our children; we had eight children that we adopted, and then foster children started coming into our lives. We’re currently parenting three children, and so, it’s a full household, but we enjoy it.”
