Willis visits Fair Oaks Elementary School

Patrick Willis visited Fair Oaks Elementary School in Redwood City, Calif., on Tuesday, to "coach" a pedestrian safety clinic and teach students about safe ways to walk to school. The event is part of the FedEx Air & Ground Players of the Week program, which encourages NFL fans to vote for outstanding Air & Ground players throughout the season, to benefit pedestrian safety programs nationwide. Willis also helped FedEx announce a $10,000 donation to the Safe Kids Santa Clara/San Mateo County coalition, for pedestrian safety improvements around the school.
