Together4Tanner Foundationwas established to honor a former player of mine and friend, Tanner Webb, who died in a boating accident on June 2, 2014. Tanner was an avid baseball player who loved the game more than anything else. His dream was to play for the UNC Tarheels baseball team and his dedication and hard work on the New Bern High School team was really taking shape. His parents, Matt and Trisha Webb, are dedicated to making sure other athletes get the support they need to pursue their own dreams of life on the field.
5FOR5 CAMPAIGNThe Together4Tanner Foundation has launched the 5 for 5 campaign, a nationwide fundraising effort with the goal of encouraging 500,000 people to give $5 to the Foundation. With this money, the Foundation will build a memorial baseball park in Craven County which will serve all the youth baseball leagues in the area.
Please help spread the word on this amazing experience and help Tanner bring baseball to the level it deserves in New Bern.
