The goal of the foundation is to have a direct impact on the youth not only in the sports world but also those within the city that need a bit of assistance and guidance. Look for the foundation to host numerous events in 2014 with our 500 Backpack giveaway, holiday events, and leadership mentoring programs while simply bringing the Berry family values to KC.
