Michigan Raptors Community Foundation

- Our Purpose -

The purpose of the Michigan Raptors Community Foundation is to strengthen Michigan communities by creating opportunities for young people through athletics, education, mentorship, and community involvement.

The Foundation will work to ensure that financial hardship does not prevent a child from participating in youth sports, while also recognizing and supporting young men and women who demonstrate dedication in athletics, academics, leadership, and service.

Through youth sports assistance, equipment donations, camps and clinics, mentorship programs, community partnerships, educational initiatives, and college scholarships, the Foundation will help young people develop the confidence, discipline, teamwork, and leadership skills necessary to succeed both on and off the field.

Mission Statement

“Building tomorrow’s leaders through sports, education, opportunity, and community.”

The Michigan Raptors Community Foundation is committed to empowering Michigan youth by removing barriers to athletic participation, expanding access to sports and mentorship, supporting student-athletes pursuing higher education, and investing in programs that build stronger young people and stronger communities.

Our mission is bigger than football. We believe every young person deserves an opportunity to compete, learn, lead, and chase their future.
