A big donation from Scherr.

The Herman Neosho Rubicon School District in Wisconsin posted about a $40,000 donation they received from former WWE talent Adam Scherr a.k.a. Braun Strowman.

With Scherr’s donation, the school district reached the amount of money they needed to replace a 25-year-old playground. The following was posted to Facebook:

Today was one of those moments that reminds you just how powerful community can be. 💛

With an incredible $40,000 donation from Braun Strowman, we officially reached the final amount needed to replace our 25+ year-old school playground.

This project has been years in the making, fueled by the generosity, time, and heart of so many in our community—and today, it came full circle.

Braun shared how meaningful it was for him to give back to a school and community that’s so close to his heart. And in true form, he didn’t just show up—he connected. The kids were absolutely in awe (understandably!), but what stood out most was how he took the time to talk with them about hard work, dedication, and believing in what’s possible. It wasn’t just a donation—it was a moment our kids will remember. Here’s to new memories, new laughter, and a playground that will serve generations to come. 🌿✨

Thank you to everyone who made this possible. This is what community looks like!

Scherr’s second run with WWE came to an end in May 2025 when he was released. Scherr is still affiliated with the sports-entertainment company through the ‘Everything on The Menu’ show on USA Network, which WWE produces, and he is the host of.

Season two kicks off on June 5th, and among the guests are Alexa Bliss and WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry.
