NFL player Kelvin Beachum joined Samsung for a Giving Tuesday event, donating $5,000 to DonorsChoose to benefit classrooms in New York and New Jersey.

Samsung employees got the chance to hear Beachum's take on leadership, giving back and the latest tech gadgets he loves while also taking photos and getting his autograph.

The event brought together Beachum, DonorsChoose and Samsung based on their shared value of empowering youth through STEM education.
