Kevin Michael Williams was lost on September 11, 2001 in the World Trade Center attacks like so many hard working and innocent people. He was one of the most promising young members of his hometown Shoreham, New York and Boston College, his alma mater.

One of Kevin’s many talents and passions was baseball. Kevin’s love for baseball inspired his family and fiancée to establish the Kevin Williams Memorial Foundation “to keep his spirit alive and to give a lot of children the opportunity to learn and enjoy baseball.”

  

Kevin’s Christmas Angels

We wish to thank all those who very generously donated to our “Kevin’s Christmas Angels” Project.  Whether it was a monetary donation, the donation of toys, volunteering to wrap hundreds of gifts or delivering “Christmas” to the 18 families during a snowstorm – you were the reason 70 people, 50 of them children, woke Christmas morning to find presents and hope under their tree.

We would like to both acknowledge and thank Brownie troop 3877 for doing a wonderful job of collecting many bags of toys for our toy drive.

A special thank you to the Shoreham EMS Company 5 and the Shoreham Fire Company 3 for their extremely generous donation, volunteering to shop for several of these families and sharing their Shoreham Firehouse with us for “wrapping day”.    “Kevin’s Christmas Angels” were obviously sent additional  “angels” in the form of our local firemen & women!

Those of us at the Kevin Williams Foundation thank all of you for allowing us to bring wonder, hope and smiles to all of these children this holiday season.

Please join us next year to share in the true spirit of Christmas.

Roger Clemens and Kevin Story

This is a picture and an email recently received from a boy that the Kevin Williams Foundation had sent to baseball camp and supplied his first baseball equipment several years ago.



"Hello Mrs. Williams,
This picture is from my first JV start because I was hurt last year. I threw the whole game 100 pitches 3 hits 11 strike-outs. We won 6-0 against Central Islip . And as you can see I still wear 16 in memory of Kevin."
