On November 15, 2025, The Brave Like Me Foundation will welcome guests to its third annual Bravesgiving Gala at the Sharonville Convention Center in Glendale, Ohio. This year, we’re honored to be joined by two incredible speakers who embody the spirit of Brave Like Me through their understanding of the power of connection, resilience, and joy.
KEYNOTE SPEAKER: DAVID FULCHER
David Fulcher is a game-changing legend who redefined the safety position with the Cincinnati Bengals. A two-sport star at Arizona State, he became a two-time consensus All-American before earning induction into both the ASU Hall of Fame and the College Football Hall of Fame. Known as “Fo Rock” for his hard-hitting style, Fulcher earned three straight Pro Bowls, three All-Pro honors, and helped lead the Bengals to Super Bowl XXIII.
Off the field, he founded Mentoring Against Negative Actions (MANA), a nonprofit impacting thousands of incarcerated men and students across Ohio. Today, Fulcher and his wife Judy remain devoted to family, community, and causes close to their hearts, proving that true greatness is defined not only by tackles and interceptions but by compassion and conviction.
IMPACT STORYTELLER: JENNIFER LOEB
Jennifer Loeb has led Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Cincinnati for 27 years, growing it from 20 bedrooms to the second-largest House in the world with 177.
