Well, Gronk might be playing football in Tampa Bay but it is clear his heart is still in New England. He’s always been really philanthropic and has donated his time and money to youth sports over the years as well as visiting Boston Children's hospital. It appears he still cares about the kiddos of New England and is showing it in a big way! It was announced this past Friday that the former Pats tight end is donating $1.2 million for the full renovation of the Charlesbank Playground on the Charles River Esplanade. According to Boston.com, this is being described this as “one of the largest private gifts ever to a state park in Massachusetts".
