He has also worked with Fort Worth youth through H.O.P.E. Farm, Inc., University Christian Church and TCU's Starpoint School.

Hollins was selected by the TCU football program as its 2019 Big 12 Champions for Life representative and was a nominee for the AFCA Good Works Team and Wuerffel Trophy, honoring college football's top community servant.
Former TCU linebacker and now Green Bay Packer Ty Summers was a semifinalist last season for the Jason Witten Collegiate Man of the Year Award.
