The Vernon Wells Perfect 10 Foundation Announces Winner of 2010 Mission Concert Suite

Friday, May 14th, 2010

Have you heard? The winner of the Twenty Ten Mission Concert suite is John Gooden of the Gooden agency in Bedford, Texas. After making the highest bid, he not only got to take his friends and co-workers to the concert, but they got to watch it from an amazing view. All of Gooden’s bid goes to support the Vernon Wells Perfect 10 Foundation.

The Vernon Wells Perfect 10 Foundation was established in 2009 by Toronto Blue Jays center fielder and Arlington native Vernon Wells to support and protect single mothers and children in need across North Texas. Gooden was extremely thankful for the opportunity to help the foundation and had a few good things to say about Vernon and his family.

“The life the Wells’ live and lead as a Christian family is awesome,” said Gooden. “The spotlight Vernon is in makes the name of Jesus even more famous. Vernon is a well-spoken gentleman that is head and shoulders above many by his ability to effectively communicate his love and his walk with Christ. I know that his ability to relate so well is only because of what is working in his heart and in his relationship with his Lord.”

A Concert to End Hunger

Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

From Casting Crowns to Toby Mac, a concert sponsored by TWENTY TEN took place on Saturday, May 1, to help “End Summer Hunger” for students across North Texas. The Vernon Wells Perfect 10 Foundation participated in the worthy cause and helped spread the word in its own unique way. The Foundation was established in 2009 by Toronto Blue Jays center fielder and Arlington native Vernon Wells and his wife, Charlene, to support and protect single mothers and children in need.

Charlene Wells and Marilee Wells, Director of Development with the Foundation, rewarded people who went on a recent mission trip with an autographed baseball from Vernon.  But they weren’t the only lucky ones who got this souvenir. Casting Crowns lead singer Mark Hall and Toby Mac were each presented with a baseball, and they were pretty happy about it, especially Toby Mac who’s a pretty big baseball fan.

The concert was a celebrity-filled event and included three-time Super Bowl winner Chad Hennings and Texas Rangers Josh Hamilton. But, if you couldn’t make it out to the event and want to help out, you can still help support single mothers and children in need by visiting the Foundation’s website: http://www.vernonwellsfoundation.org/
