Help Ben Get Through This Troubled Time

Hi Everyone,

My name is Ben Hagen, and as you may know from my social media posts, my Grandfather, Russ Banks, passed away on February 12th, 2024. For my entire life, he was one of the few constant figures I had in my life during a turbulent upbringing. He was the person who introduced me to the game of Baseball, for which I will be forever thankful, as it has introduced me to many amazing people and allows me to continue to do what I love on a daily basis.

One of my favorite things I was able to share with him was his love for my VeloTech team, which he followed religiously on GameChanger and always made sure to support them, however he could.

Over the last few years, he battled many ailments, including cancer and heart failure, but he always kept his chin up and kept fighting all the way until the very last day.

As I have begun the process of taking care of his affairs, many costs have started to pop up. I am currently in a tough financial position due to this unfortunate series of events, and anything that anyone could spare would help greatly in regards to paying for his funeral costs, paying off his debt, housing payments, etc.

Thank you everyone for your support, and I hope to see you in the facility or at the field very soon.

Ben Hagen
