Meet Parker Hanson

An accomplished college baseball player at Augustana University, Parker Hanson’s ambition and determination while growing up enabled him to reach his dreams! As a child, Parker yearned to play sports in college — he was athletic, willing to work hard, and determined to do so. Only one thing remained as an obstacle in his path: Parker was born without a left hand.

Yet his physical disability did not hinder his passion, rather Parker committed himself to various sports such as football and baseball in his childhood. His work ethic and dedication to these sports equipped him for the intensive training schedule that came with his transition to higher level sports.

Still playing at his college today, Parker hopes to motivate and inspire children like himself and of all abilities to overcome their own challenges and pursue their dreams.  

We are excited to welcome Parker to our team as he shares his story as our new ambassador! Tune into our Webinar featuring Parker on September 20th, 2020 at 7:00PM- 8:00PM PDT.
