is cutting a $120,000 check to help fund anti-racism training for NOPD officers ... and city officials are stoked.

31-year-old Jordan -- a 6-time Pro Bowl defensive end -- announced the move Monday alongside New Orleans mayor... saying he's happy to fund a program that will have a positive impact on the community. The training will be operated by the Crescent City Corps -- which describes itself as a"New Orleans-based non-profit that equips new police officers with leadership development and community engagement training so that they can work alongside citizens to build a more just, safe, and inclusive city."CCC launched a pilot program with 10 NOPD offices in 2019 -- and now, with Cam's donation, they hope to train 80 officers over the next 2 years.

"This is not a solution," Jordan said during the event ..."This is a continuation of work that has been done from the social justice leaders, who have been on the ground, to the leaders that are in the system as we speak now.

Props to Cam -- who's been making a serious impact in New Orleans for years ... both on and off the field.
