Carroll’s 60th birthday wish

Coach Pete Carroll turns 60 today, and what does he want for his milestone birthday?

Besides a win on Sunday obviously, he’d love simply for you to support his “birthday for a cause” that’s raising money for the newly founded charity A Better Seattle.

Carroll is asking fans to donate $12, or whatever you can afford, to the cause. He’s committed to matching the total amount along with a crew of corporate sponsors who will also match.

A Better Seattle, modeled after Carroll’s highly successful A Better LA foundation, aims to rid gang violence from the streets of the Puget Sound area. It officially launches this afternoon with a press conference and opening ceremony at VMAC.

Give to Carroll’s birthday for a cause here.
