Through their own foundation, Buffalo Wild Wings funds local communities so that people have access to facilities, equipment, transportation and staff for youth sports teams.
The Kyle Pease Foundation Staff Member, Kevin Enners, has launched a vlog series!
On November 13, 2021 we'll gathered to celebrate her life, to support the causes she loved, to challenge ourselves to be our best, and to cheer each other on.
Initially, Wahoo was introduced to The Kyle Pease Foundation through its CFO, JP Matzigkeit. He then introduced Brent and Kyle to Content Director Matt Porter, who collaborated with them on a video shoot. Since then, a number of Wahoo employees have stepped up to participate in races as push-assist athletes, including Katie Dupree.
During races, it takes a village. Just come to one. You’ll find KPF’s village of dads stepping up, lending a hand, from helping with equipment and setup, to transferring athletes into chairs and bikes, to pushing chairs and sidling to perform on-course equipment fixes. Oh, and then there’s packing everything up after a long day. But the work that these dads do take place way before the start line. It is done within households of in-chair athletes and volunteers – in small moments – and grows from there.
Being part of a community of people with common backgrounds and bonding with his daughter, Katy, are motivators for volunteer and dad, Ryan Freeseman. “I want to help where I can because I want more families to experience the connection they can have with their kids and the joy others can have by competing,” said Freeseman.
