Check out Drew Brees for example...guy is a saint (literally and metaphorically).

Unfortunately, a lot of players explicitly state that they do not want any media coverage of their good deeds. Why? I don't really know. But there were multiple times when I had wanted to tell a good story and was told by the player, the player's agent, the player's publicist, etc. that was going to fly. I mean I think I understand why, in many cases. It's because they don't want the beneficiary of the good deed to think they were all just part of some public relations stunt.
