We’re building something to last forever
Southeast Michigan and Western New York are rich with assets. Regions that once carried the growth of the country on their backs are populated by families accustomed to hard work, looking only for success that is earned from the sweat of their efforts. Bright young minds, seeking just a nudge of support and a glimpse of opportunity, fill our schools and playgrounds and are ready to turn potential into performance. An army of caregivers, needing support and respite, wish only to honor an aging generation’s contributions, wisdom and knowledge.
And it isn’t our foundation
Strengthening community
is a team sport
Our Foundation is part of that team. We will work with the players already on the ground—the organizations and passionate individuals that are making a difference in our communities every day. We will share the qualities of our founder—energy, urgency, innovation and heart—in efforts already underway and in new efforts that we can create together. We want to help make a difference differently.
