Run/Walk Sponsorship

Connor’s Way, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) Not for Profit Corporation

 

With the generous support of our friends and community, Connor’s Way 2022 was a huge success! The Not-For-Profit’s annual event raises funds for scholarships for area youth and provides assistance to needy families, in memory of Connor Arthur Lynskey, who was tragically killed by a drunk driver in 2018 at the age of 18. In the past year alone, 25 scholarships were awarded to students at 13 different schools in Oneida and Herkimer counties. In the past four years, well over $30,000 in awards have been distributed to area students who excel in academics and athletics/character, as well as a tradesman scholarship awarded in memory of Joey R. Ventura. The high school scholarship program is administered by the Community Foundation of Herkimer & Oneida Counties, and more information on that program is available at www.foundationhoc.org/connor.

We send our sincere thanks to our 2022 sponsors and welcome that continued support of Connor’s Way in 2023!  Should a hardship prevent you from continuing your support this year, please contact us to discuss other options.   For those new to the opportunity of sponsoring this year, we would love to provide any and all information to help make that decision and, as always, appreciate you spreading the word to to others who may share that interest.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us keep Connor’s memory alive and helping the youth of our community ~ your support means so much to the Connor’s Way team and our family!
