12th Annual

Michelle Fund Softball Tournament

The Michelle Sullivan Fund was created in 1993 after the tragic death of our daughter, Michelle Sullivan.  At the time of her death, Michelle was 12 years old eagerly awaiting the start of a new school year going into the 7^th grade.  Like most 12 year olds, Michelle enjoyed being involved in sports.  Michelle was not blessed with natural athleticism, but understood that being part of a team required a lot more than that.  She worked hard and supported her teammates constantly, which made her an important team member. 

Michelle started playing softball in the third grade with her father as her coach.  The summer before her death she had played on the traveling girls’ softball team and looked forward to playing when she entered high school.  Since sports were a big part of her life, after her death, caring friends approached our family to start a fund in her memory.  The purpose of the fund is to help promote girls athletics.

We are thankful for all of the hard work that goes into running the Michelle Fund Softball Tournament and thank all the softball programs that participate.  September, 2009 was the 16^th anniversary of Michelle’s death.  Our family is very appreciative of all the generous donations and support that has kept this fund going in her memory.  Michelle had great love of life, always enjoying just the simple things that life had to offer.  She always had a smile on her face and something nice to say.  We know that she is smiling down knowing that the fund in her name has benefited so many young girls.
