"I can note firsthand the ability that one, single person can have in positively impacting the life of another. It wasn't until I won an essay contest as a youngster that I realized this. My prize was to have dinner with legendary coach Al McGuire. Having dinner with Mr. McGuire changed my life. He told me that I can be anything I want to be and by hearing someting that simple, it changed my outlook on the way I looked at life. It offered a new and profound perspective. I know firsthand how it feels being one of those precious children that is lost and riddled with misfortune. When the Flying for Faith team was forming, I knew that I wanted to jump onboard. I know from experience that uplifting programs guided with the right moral value changes lives. I look forward to changing lives in the most positive way, just as Mr. McGuire did to me many years ago." |
