Our mission

Stability, mentorship and a brighter future.

Fore The Kids was founded by Michael Diamond in June 2019 to give back to the charities he grew up serving. Today we're 25 active members, all under 30, proving our generation doesn't have to wait to give back.

We provide financial support to child development organizations so the youth of the greater Phoenix area can reach their full potential. Then we show up in person, at backpack drives, holiday parties, and gift days.
