Daniel's Legacy foundation
Daniel Wyatt Spitzer, august 10, 2003, to july 4, 2022
Daniel’s Legacy is a 501C3 organization started with the generosity and big hearts of the Pratt Kansas community. Our lives and our community were forever changed when Daniel’s life was lost in an accident.
Daniel’s 4-H steer was sold 39 times at the Pratt County Fair Livestock Auction. Our community embraced our desire to honor Daniel through Daniel’s Legacy. The sale of his steer and other generous donors allowed us to begin this foundation.
daniel was the amazing young man he was because of the people who mentored him along the way.
The focus of Daniel’s Legacy is mentorships for young adults with interests similar to his.
