Another man, wearing a white t-shirt, is then seen coming up to Newton, throwing a punch which appears to make contact with someone, although it is hard to tell if he caught Newton or another individual nearby.

The NFL star was able to hold the group of guys off until police showed up to take control of the situation.

The CNF creates and supports strategic programs, events and partnerships that align with these focus areas."

Adding, "Charitable initiatives fall under three main areas: Every 1 Learns, Every 1 Plays, Every 1 Gives."

He has been focused on The Cam Newton Foundation for years as he looks for ways to help disadvantaged kids achieve their educational goals. “I want to give them opportunities that they might not have had otherwise,” Newton told PEOPLE at the time.

“When I was growing up, my parents really influenced me,” he says. “But there are kids who don’t have that type of influence. They need someone who can create avenues for their dreams – whether they want to be a football player, a doctor or a veterinarian.”

The Foundation came shortly after Newton received his Bachelor's degree, which he says,  “I wanted to finish something I started. I value a lot of things in my life, including education. I now have a degree, and nobody can take that away from me. It was very important to me to become a college graduate – not for anyone else, but for myself.”
