MI Foundation National Beneficiaries

The MI Charitable Foundation is a proud supporter of these organizations, and more

In addition to local outreach, the MI Foundation has partnered with several national organizations to support three noteworthy causes: veteran’s affairs, children's wellbeing, and cancer at large with a particular focus on pediatric cancer. The organizations we support at a national level focus their primary efforts in at least one of these three categories. Though we support many charitable organizations, three examples of our national partnerships are with Homes for Our Troops, Four Diamonds, and St. Jude.

About the Foundation

Homes for Our Troops

Homes for Our Troops builds specially-adapted, mortgage-free homes for severely injured post 9/11 Veterans. These homes help restore the freedom and independence our Veterans sacrificed while defending our country, and enable them to focus on their family, recovery, and rebuilding their lives.

Four Diamonds

Founded in 1972 in memory of Scott Millard, the Four Diamonds Fund provides funding to pediatric cancer patients at Penn State Hershey Children’s Hospital, ensuring that no family, regardless of their financial standing, will receive a bill.

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

Discoveries made at St. Jude have completely changed how the world treats children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. With research and patient care under one roof, St. Jude is where some of today’s most gifted researchers work toward a cure.
