CORNERBACKS COACH, ARIZONA CARDINALS
Leadership is a primary goal of our character education program. Blue Ridge boys graduate knowing what it means to be a true leader, because they have experienced this trait first hand from mentors and their peers in this community. Leadership in Baron Fund giving starts off this whole cycle. You can set a standard that elevates the community by joining a leadership club with your gift.

BRS was a pivotal period in my life and laid the foundation for my future. The slogan “Teaching Boys to Reach” has followed me on my journey through coaching. There have been ebbs and flows in my career. I’ve lost games, had bad seasons, lost out on promotions, and even been fired. What I have learned on my journey is to not to be caught up in the past, future, or fretting over things you can’t control. Focus on being the best version of you in the present. Have the courage to seek growth & development
in all areas of your life. And lastly but most importantly, be a good person.
Participation matters regardless of the amount of your gift. Thank you for being part of The Baron Fund and the Blue Ridge family.
