Mission Statement

The Flint Firebirds Foundation was created to unite the power of hockey with our commitment to the Genesee & Lapeer County community to create lasting positive impacts. We are dedicated to fostering growth, inclusivity, and empowerment through initiatives reaching kids and young individuals. The Foundation raised money at the Flint Firebirds hockey games at the Dort Financial Center via Chuck-a-puck sales, live and silent auctions, and fan and corporate partner donations.

In the Firebirds’ Inaugural season, the team raised and donated over $500,000.00 to support local charities and youth initiatives.

Together, with the love for hockey as our driving force, we aim to empower the next generation of leaders, athletes, and community builders. Through our Kids Initiatives, we strive to make a lasting impact on the lives of children, ensuring that they have the skills, support, and opportunities they need to create a brighter future for themselves and their communities as part of the Flint Firebirds family.”
