This Fund was set up to honour and remember a baseball loving young man with many personal and sport highlights. Each year, the Fund’s investment proceeds are sent to YouthNet with a directive to support youth leaders providing outreach to young people regarding mental health and suicide awareness initiatives.
The David Conn Memorial Fund is dedicated to making a positive difference in the community and chose OCF to support their work as a like minded organization with a focus on the benefits of collective impact. Through the Fund, David’s family seeks to convey to youth leaders that they can play a vital role in raising mental health awareness. Acting alone it is hard to see impact; but together we can remove many barriers and stigmas.
