My Cause My Cleats - Montae Nicholson

NICHOLSON-2560x1440-L

Both of Montae Nicholson's younger cousins are on the Autism spectrum, but that's not what defines them. One is incredibly smart and always has a smile of his face and the other is a talented football player and interested in computer coding. When Nicholson gets a chance to see them, he always admires their positive and ecstatic attitudes.

"I'm supposed to be inspiring them, but they really are inspiring me," Nicholson said. "Because, with everything going on, they always got a smile on their face. Two of the happiest people I've ever seen."

For "My Cause My Cleats," Nicholson is working with the **Autism Society** and **National Down Syndrome Society**. Aiming to help bring more awareness to Autism as well as show his appreciation for his cousins and others, he's excited to use the cleats as a way to express how much he loves them.

"I can't wait, I can't wait. Hopefully this is just a little bit of how I can show my appreciation for them," Nicholson said. "I hope they realize how much it means to me."
