Hero Program

Steve Wetzel, baseball coach at Freedom High School, is the executive director of an organization called "Hero Program". The Hero Program provides financial, educational, and emotional support to terminally ill children and their families. The Program doesn't measure its work in terms of success, but in terms of significance. The difference is the emotional connection and the relationships they maintain with the Hero Families. These relationships allow the Program to get at the heart of Heroes’ needs and to provide support for their every-day challenges. Learn more about the Program at www.heroprogram.org.
