The Chris Hodges Memorial Fund was created in 2017 after our son, brother, and friend passed away in a tragic accident. In his absence we decided to continue his passion of helping the youth grow, not just in sports, but in life as well. He had an open ear, and an open heart for anyone who needed It.

Chris grew up in Jackson and at a young age had to make his tough decision between being a baseball player or a cowboy, and it was just too hard to run bases in his boots, so baseball it was. He went on to play throughout his youth and into college,  when his playing days were cut short due to injuries. From then on he decided to help others fulfill their dreams by becoming a coach.

This memorial fund provides financial support to individuals and organizations who are committed to helping and allowing others to follow their dreams, while living their own.
