Mike has established several annual public events to bring Americans of different religions, ethnicities, and races together on common ground to build a safe and secure America.

Concerned by the political, civil and economic divisiveness, Mike has initiated and formed the America Together Foundation (ATF), a non-profit entity committed to building a cohesive America, where no American has to live with anxiety, apprehension, discomfort or fear of the other. One must be free to live his or her life to the fullest in pursuit of happiness. The ATF is in the developmental stage now and invites participants, sponsors and volunteers.

He believes that if we can learn to respect the otherness of others and accept the God-given uniqueness of each one of the 7 billion of us, then conflicts fade and solutions emerge.

Mike starts each day with a commitment to build a cohesive America and pluralistic societies with a strong faith in one Creator God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.
