Giving Back & Mike's Foundation
While The mikeroweWORKS Foundation has been formed and is quite official, we’re still in the early stages in selecting what specific organizations the money will go to. We’ve talked to the folks at The AED Foundation about all sorts of opportunities there are for us to help them create and distribute training materials and other educational tools to career and technical schools around the Country. We will also be talking to a variety of organizations and associations to explore similar opportunities in the coming weeks.

Where should I send my donation, you’re thinking. We’ve got that covered too. You can address it to: The mikeroweWORKS Foundation, 429 Santa Monica Boulevard, #710, Santa Monica, CA 90401.

Bottom line, all monies collected by The mikeroweWORKS Foundation will go to further the mission of mikeroweWORKS – and that is to promote the skilled trades in areas of public awareness, reducing stigmas, education, career planning and job opportunities as well as support organizations that get us there.

Yeah, it’s a trade thing.
