HOPE FOR HUNTER

Dear Patriot Families,

Since our 1st experience with the BGYFL organization 11 years ago, I have always been impressed with how franchises care and support one another.  I am hoping that today is no exception.

Please read the email we received  below from Downers Grove regarding Hunter Himes, a 14 year old Panthers football player that was hit by a car on February 26th and has been in the hospital ever since.  

Please consider supporting the Himes family (below explains how you can contribute to his mounting medical expenses) and kindly keep Hunter and his family in your prayers. 

 

On February 26th, a boy from Downers Grove was hit by a car and remains hospitalized.  Hunter Himes is a member of DG Panthers.  This forwarded email is from the 28th, so the info about the prayer vigil has passed.  However, I wanted to forward the new info in case you wanted to get it out to BGYFL members.  

There is a facebook group created, called Hope for Hunter with news & updates and a Benefit Account created for his family.  I pasted the info below, and it also can be viewed at our DG Panther website at www.pantherjrfootball.org

On the FB group page, a friend posted to the family that Hunter "has a whole cheering section".  With the amazing kids and families who participate in BGYFL football & cheer, I'm certain the impact will be huge if we can all send along our prayers.  

Thank you,
