Hometown Legends Initiative

When hometown legends see their hometown in need they don't just send condolences. They do not just wish they could do something to help. They go out there and do what needs to be done. This legend did not have to go back personally, he could have just donated and left it at that. Fortunately for Mayfield, Kentucky they had Luis Pardo.
