SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - A Chargers player is tackling an important cause off the field.
Eric Weddle is challenging you to get involved in his campaign against domestic violence. The goal is to make Hope Five viral similar to the ALS ice bucket challenge.

3) Challenge and tag three friends to post a "HOPE five" video within 24 hours or give a donation.
4) Use the following hashtags:

#Evolutionlighthouse
The HOPE five campaign is leading up to the Day of Hope taking place March 27.
To kick start the campaign, Brent Wilsey's Asset Management Office donated $1,000 to the cause.
