How we do it.
Through various events, campaigns, and drives we raise funds to support local charities and scholarship opportunities that align with our mission and vision. As we continue to grow as a foundation, our aim is to expand our reach in order to touch as many low-income families as possible.
Why we do it.
The Connor D. Anderson Memorial Foundation got its roots in 2020 when a group of friends decided to put on a charity golf tournament in remembrance of Connor D. Anderson, who passed away in his sleep at the age of 28. The tournament was a success and we decided to make it a yearly event. The following year we received tremendous support from friends, family, and local organizations wishing to become more involved. As a result, we decided to legitimize the foundation and in 2021 the Connor D. Anderson Memorial Foundation became a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Our mission is to provide funds for athletes in under-resourced communities to discover the outdoors, explore diverse cultures, and pursue higher education. Our late friend Connor loved the outdoors, sports, and had the most welcoming and open spirit. Our “why” is to carry on his legacy through the Foundation.
