Danny Fadgen has positively impacted so many of our lives over the last 25 years and more! He has helped us and our loved ones become better swimmers and triathletes through his service as the aquatics director at the Memphis Jewish Community Center since 1997. He has taught beginners, volunteered for camps, trained lifeguards, built and coached a masters/triathletes program, provided safe and welcoming pools and lounging areas, hosted special events, encouraged everyone who crossed his path, and so many little things that go unnoticed; yet made an enormous difference. Most recently, he helped ensure that health protocols were followed, while getting people back into the water.

If Danny (or his story) has changed your life and your world for the better, please donate any amount and share kind words or a memory below. This is one of those rare times that you don't need to worry about remaining anonymous and humble. Leave your name and words of thanks and encouragement. Coach will certainly appreciate seeing the rewards from decades of whole-hearted service spilled out in this uncertain moment.

Please share this effort with anyone who is better off for having known Danny. This is definitely the hour when it is most appropriate for him to receive a return on all of the love he has put into the world. Help us spread the word.
