A Worthy Cause. Konrad Reuland suffered a brain aneurysm and passed away in December 2016 at the age of 29. Although he was taken from us so young, Konrad lived his dream. After playing football at Mission Viejo High School, Konrad graduated from Stanford University and played in the NFL as a tight end for both the New York Jets and the Baltimore Ravens. His enthusiasm and passion for life was exceptional, as was his love for his family and friends. Even after his passing, Konrad helped save/improve the lives of over 75 people through successful organ and tissue donations. We are on a mission to raise awareness for organizations that represent the values that were important to Konrad. Most of the proceeds will go towards scholarships to "Littles" in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program which provides resources and mentorship to disadvantaged youths with aspirations of going to college and pursuing their dreams. A portion of the proceeds will also be awarded to One Legacy/Donate Life, an organ/tissue donation entity, to provide education and awareness about organ donation. Additional support will be provided to the Lisa Colagrossi Foundation whose goal is to spread awareness and provide support for brain aneurysm research and education, and the City of Mission Viejo programs of Spirit League (special needs sports programs) and Acing Autism (special needs tennis program).
