CJ Conrad’s philanthropic legacy lives on with UK Football

Kentucky’s tight-end became a regular visitor and volunteer at the Kentucky Children’s Hospital last year, meeting with kids and their families every Tuesday. His dedication to KCH led to several friendships with the kids, including nine-year old cancer patient Ryan Cremeens of Richmond, Kentucky. Conrad helped Cremeens ring the bell at his final chemo treatment and invited him to run out of the tunnel alongside the team for last season’s Blue/White game. Conrad’s efforts helped put smiles on some of the most deserving kids’ faces every Tuesday, including Levi and Sam back in September.

A huge shout-out and thank you to @UKFootball player @cjconrad1 for spending quality time with our kids at @KCHKids this morning!
