Wes Leonard Heart Team Fund
After making the winning shot to leading the Fennville High School basketball team to an undefeated regular season, Wes Leonard tragically passed away March 3, 2011. He is remembered by his coach Ryan Klingler “…as just an amazing kid. What made him special is he had a passion about everything he did. That’s what separated him—his passion. He had a passion to compete. He had a passion to be his best.” In Wes’ honor, his family and friends have created the Wes Leonard Heart Team Fund. The Fund was created to ensure schools have the equipment and trained personnel to address emergency heart related issues, and fund research in the field of cardiology to help reduce the number of lives lost to Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
The Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area is very pleased to be part of this effort. Your support of the Wes Leonard Heart Team Fund may be what makes the difference for a young athlete in the future.
