CB Passion, Pride and Perseverance Program
Donation protected
We are Connor Ballance‘s family, and we have received many requests from people on HOW they can help support us. We have created the below as our way to receive your support and love, and give back in a way that Connor can make the biggest impact, which is what he wanted.
Connor left this world during a diving accident, doing what he loved, hanging with his friends in the beautiful beauty of the lake. During his Celebration of Life, so many shared how much he impacted their lives, and the difference he made in his short time here. He helped find Passion for friends that needed direction, he did everything with Purpose, and he not only was the vision of Perseverance but he was able to instill that in so many.
We want to carry on his VISION of making the world a better place, but do it in a bigger and better way as only he would want it. As a result, we are creating the
CB Passion, Pride, and Perseverance Program. This program will have two (2) projects aligned.
The 1st PROJECT is to develop the CB Rockwood Summit Football Project. Connor had an incredible Passion for football and so loved the game. We will identify new ways to instill Passion, Purpose, and Perseverance by working with Coach Stewart to create the right way to integrate the this FOCUS into the Football Program.
The 2nd Project will align to building a CB “Self” Youth Empowerment Project. Connor was always full of Style and Swag and loved to instill his “style on others”. Connor started his own clothing brand, SELF GARMENTS to INSPIRE youth of today and help give them that swagger and confidence.
His FOCUS, INSPIRATION and his business statement:
“Where does inspiration come from” …
*It comes from that dream,
*The dream you’ve always wanted,
*Always desired,
*All from the beginning.
Within this second project, we will work with various Youth Organizations and organize “SELF EMPOWERMENT”makeovers to help build Youth’s Pride in themselves, understand how to find a Passion, and learn to continue to Persevere.
As we disperse these funds to these two aligned Projects under the CB Passion, Pride, and Perseverance Program, we will coordinate a LINK and share to UPDATE so you can see what Connor CONTINUES TO DO in this world to touch more lives in so many more ways.
We greatly appreciate your contribution to this program and know with this donation you will be a part of putting the “rainbow around the sun”.
