As part of their offseason activities, all 23 members of the Los Angeles Rams 2025 Rookie Class, including, Terrance Ferguson, Josaiah Stewart, Jarquez Hunter, Ty Hamilton, Chris "Pooh" Paul Jr., and Konata Mumpfield got to know the city as they embarked on a community tour. The events provided a bonding opportunity for the group and continued the team's dedication to short- and long-term fire relief following the January Wildfires.
To kick off the events, the group partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles and Hollywood Park for a drive-thru distribution event at SoFi Stadium. The event served approximately 500 households affected by recent fires, with donations including small home appliances, boxed furniture, and air purifiers.
The group also attended a team bonding event with Los Angeles Fire Department members as they participated in the fire recruit tower test that included a stair climb, hose drag, equipment carry, ladder raise, stair running, and more.
"Growing up, I looked up to people, especially professional athletes, so being able to do that for other people and serving [the community] is huge," said Ferguson. "When you have professional athletes around and they're putting their time and resources into the community, I think it's huge for kids and people to look up to."
For the third consecutive year, the Rams and City Year Los Angeles (CYLA) led a school beautification project in recognition of Juneteenth. This year's event was held at Odyssey Charter School in Altadena in continuation of the team's efforts to bring joy to the community affected by the Eaton Fire. During the effort, the rookies, Rams Cheerleaders and mascot Rampage joined staff volunteers from Bank of America and the Rams to assist with mulching and gardening efforts and paint murals on campus. The murals aim to inspire students and provide motivation when they return to school for the first time since December 2024.

Paul Jr. spoke on his involvement at the beautification. "It makes us feel good as a program," said Paul Jr. "[It's great] being able to give back to the kids and just give them some excitement coming into the school year."
Perry’s Joint, local Black-owned restaurant and Pasadena staple, also catered lunch for the Beautification event. The school beautification project was a continuation of the longstanding partnership between the Rams and CYLA to ensure that all students have access to the resources they need to thrive in school, career and life and reach their potential.
The rookies rounded out their community tour by attending the Rams Youth Football Performance Camp at the team's practice facility on June 14. The group assisted in teaching participants the fundamentals of football and essential positional skills as they participated in competitive drills. They also educated campers on the transferable life skills gained through playing football and how to translate those habits into the classroom.
"From a player development perspective, we believe it is incredibly important for rookies to take an active role in supporting the community they are a part of," said Los Angeles Rams Senior Manager of Football Affairs Casey Africano. "We work alongside our community relations department to target and identify groups and organizations that could use volunteers during the summer. They have done an incredible job of dispersing need and helping the rookies to understand the profound impact they can have on Los Angeles at large. This has become a regularly scheduled element of [our] Rookie Academy and continues into the season. The rookies have continually rolled up their sleeves to offer their time and energy, and we could not be more proud to have them on our squad."
"When [the rookies] are part of Los Angeles and part of the community, when they wear the Rams' horns, it means giving back to the community in a meaningful way and getting engaged to help those [in need]," said Rams President Kevin Demoff.
