My name is Alton McCaskill and I am a member of the University of Houston. As you may know, I had a helluva 2021-2022 football season and racked in a lot of NIL deals. Unfortunately that all came to an end when I suffered a season ending injury on April 1, 2022 that essentially dried up all of my NIL deals/offers.

Unlike many other student-athletes that you see in the media receiving group NIL deals for a whole team, we have not been privileged to receive this blessing and do not receive any additional funds beyond my monthly stipend money for room and board.

Since I have arrived at the University of Houston, I have always helped my family financially. Sadly a pretty severe family emergency has left me no choice but to create this fund as an attempt to help. This need is to specifically ensure that my siblings' emergency needs are met and they are safe, secure, healthy and ready to learn in this new school year.

I humbly thank you for your willingness to assist me this time.
