Emphasis mine.

Hunter has felt devastation before in Southern Indiana. An EF-4 tornado destroyed much of his community in Henryville in March 2012.

[...]

Memories from that tornado more than 10 years ago have left their mark on Hunter, who was a teacher at the school when it was destroyed. Now, he said, he wants to give back to devastated communities around the world.

[...]

[He started to run] toward his problems instead of away from them. The longtime coach founded Cornerstone Hoops, a nonprofit organization that aims to "use the great game of basketball to connect and provide hope for those we encounter." The organization is funded by donations that help Hunter travel the world to teach kids how to play the game along with Christian values.

"I decided that this needed to be more about something other than basketball, it needed to be about helping others," he said recently. "I was at a church service and the preacher said that feeling you get where you believe that you should do something is called conviction, and I’ve ignored that a lot in my life.”

Sure thing, fundie Trump voter. Sure thing.
