Madden Madness to Support the Ryan Shazier Fund
December 6, 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.
Robert Morris University, in partnership with the Ryan Shazier Fund for Spinal Rehabilitation, is hosting a special event that blends competitive gaming, community engagement, and a powerful mission. Madden Madness will bring students, fans, and supporters together for an afternoon of exciting gameplay—all for a meaningful cause.
RMU Business students and RMU Esports are collaborating with the Shazier Fund to deliver an event that not only entertains, but also educates and empowers. Students involved in sport and event management will gain hands-on experience by coordinating an initiative that supports individuals recovering from spinal cord injuries.
At the center of the event is former Pittsburgh Steeler Ryan Shazier, who will participate in live Madden games with attendees. His ongoing advocacy through the Shazier Fund continues to provide critical resources, rehabilitation support, and hope for people navigating spinal cord injury recovery.
