The Meaning of the “Plus” in the THF logo

The
+

 

The Taylor Hooton Foundation’s + is the healthy alternative to the asterisk (*).  The * is an eyesore.  It’s today’s Scarlet A…an annoying reminder of something that we don’t

even want to be reminded of.  The * tells us there is something distastefully hidden; hidden

charges, hidden late fees, the hidden truth. On the other hand, the + stands for achievement, accountability, authenticity.

It’s that little extra oomph to a great story.  What you see is what you get.  When an athlete wears the THF +, it tells fans that he or she put in a lot of hard time

and effort – they ran that extra mile, ate right, got a full night’s rest, and eagerly showed up

to those weekend weight training sessions when they didn’t have to.And for the player, most importantly, it’s a symbol of faith – that they’re capable of achieving

greatness on their own.  The + is a proud reminder of how they got there…

…not of what they got to.
