Desire Street believes the best investment for lasting change in a neighborhood is time, presence, and relationship. None of those things happen overnight, and the revitalization of under-resourced neighborhoods is a tremendous undertaking by courageous leaders nationwide. Many of which intentionally decide to call those neighborhoods home themselves.

Desire Street Ministries' desire is to encourage, equip, and connect leaders who answer that call.

UGA’s Vince & Barbara Dooley with Wuerffel at the 2021 Desire Cup at Sea Island

Danny Wuerffel led an impressive career at the University of Florida playing college football, before continuing his career in the NFL for 6 seasons. Danny has since picked up pickleball and has played numerous tournaments over the last several years.

But most impressive to Selkirk is Danny's mission to service and supporting under-privileged and under-resourced communities across the United States. Danny served as a volunteer for Desire Street Ministries while playing for the New Orleans Saints. At the conclusion of his NFL career, Wuerffel took a full time role with DSM, and now serves as the Executive Director. All proceeds from this event will go to Desire Street Ministries.
