The Kendrick Fincher Foundation strives to make water more accessible for athletes and educate on proper hydration. We talk with the founders about their inspiration and how listeners can get involved.
After the tragic loss of 13-year-old Kendrick Fincher following a heat stroke at football practice, his mother Rhonda was inspired to start the Kendrick Fincher Hydration for Life Foundation. The organization’s mission is to spread awareness about the importance of proper hydration, especially for young student athletes.
We chat with representatives Keisha and Kayla about the foundation’s origins, their initiatives like donating water bottles and cooling tubs to schools, and community events that raise money to further their mission.
The founders share practical tips everyone can use to stay hydrated, and ways that listeners can get involved through volunteering, donations, or attending upcoming events like their Back to School Blaster Bash fun run fundraiser.
Tune in to learn more about this impactful organization working hard to prevent heat-related tragedies.
