Our founder, NFL Star Rod Coleman earned his first Pro Bowl
nod in 2005 after leading all NFL interior linemen for the
second straight season in sacks with 10.5 sacks in addition
to tallying a career-high four forced fumbles. Mr. Coleman
lettered in football and track as an honor student at Simon
Gratz (Philadelphia, PA) High School and later majored in
child development and family relations at East Carolina University.
He founded the Rod Coleman Foundation in 2005 to help kids,
particularly those in group homes, develop life skills for
a successful transition into independent living.
