In this episode of Living History with Alex, we sit down with Michael O’Connor, a community leader dedicated to giving back through initiatives that support organizations like the Boy Scouts of America, Special Olympics, American Cancer Society, and more.

Michael shares the story behind the St. John Neumann Men’s Club Golf Tournament, now in its 34th year, and how it has raised thousands of dollars to support programs such as children’s hospitals, homeless outreach, and the well-known Teddy Bear Christmas, which has donated over 16,000 teddy bears to children in need.

He also opens up about his personal journey, including overcoming cancer, becoming a grandfather, and how those life-changing moments strengthened his purpose to continue serving others.
