Cannon Hinnant was 5 years old when his life was cut short by being shot in the head. This was a personal loss to the organization as Cannon’s great grandfather is a member of Guardians of the Children Winston-Salem. We asked Cannon’s mom if we could host a ride in his memory and raise funds for anything that his siblings left behind may need.
