The Foundation's goal is to raise funds to support local causes near and dear to our hearts — and near and dear to Big Mike's heart.  Consistent with that goal, the Foundation has focused on certain "pillars" of causes to support, including veterans causes, suicide prevention, and need-based scholarships for local students and to support local hockey.  

​

But just as Big Mike would support numerous good causes in the community, the Foundation also supports other local causes, including local soup kitchens and food pantries, holiday meals for those in need, and other worthy causes.
