ONE PURPOSE
We all know together, We Get Further: Build a Solid Foundation
The Fact is that we spend more time working on bringing on sponsors than we need to. By creating the hall of fame we commit to two THINGS, solidifying our schedule and annual calendar for the kids, and bringer more kids and awareness to every event. This is not just a network, but a purpose-driven community where each member is committed to helping others. Every introduction, resource, and dollar shared within D3D aims to create meaningful, positive change, proving that when we support others, we all rise.

Our Children Should Never Face Exclusion in Youth Athletics
Hall of Famers are here to HELP!
What You Really Need To Know!
Despite the proven physical, mental, and social benefits of sports, children and young adults with disabilities are often excluded from team athletics. D3D Hall of Fame Tackles This Problem.
Through the combined efforts of professional athletes, entrepreneurs, and passionate companies, D3D Hall of Fame members work together to fund inclusive athletic experiences that are accessible to all children, helping them build confidence, friendships, and life skills through team sports.
Lack of Funding & Resources
Programs that accommodate individuals with disabilities are underfunded, leading to limited adaptive equipment, specialized training, and tailored programs.
Social Isolation & Stigma
Many children with disabilities experience social isolation, leading to lowered self-esteem and missed opportunities for peer connections.
Missed Opportunities for Personal Growth
Team sports teach resilience, teamwork, and self-confidence. When children with disabilities are excluded, they miss out on these transformative experiences.
Lack of Awareness & Advocacy
Society often overlooks the athletic potential of individuals with disabilities, resulting in minimal advocacy and few resources directed toward inclusive athletic programs.
NOW you know the Mission: Here is what we do for our Members.
Embodying “Pulling Each Other Along” Through Community & Generosity
Inspired by Core Values Because
Together, We Get Further
This is not just a network, but a purpose-driven community where each member is committed to helping others. Every introduction, resource, and dollar shared within D3D aims to create meaningful, positive change, proving that when we support others, we all rise.
This book and movement call for a community where lifting one another up becomes the foundation. D3D Hall of Fame is built on this ethos, embodying generosity, empathy, and collective growth.

“Overall, the event exceeded my expectations. I knew it would be special, but when you see the look on those kids’ faces and know they had the time of their life at your ballpark, it’s something. As Dave said in his team meeting, ‘you will remember it the rest of your life.’”
