Tom McKay Joins Team HEADstart

My name is Tom McKay and I have joined Team HEADstart to raise money for a great cause: Headstrong Foundation. I’ve been involved in raising money for this charity for the last few years through my son’s high school lacrosse team’s charity event (South Lyon, MI). After learning of Nick Colleluori’s story and meeting his family, who tirelessly work to carry on Nick’s vision through the Headstrong Foundation (www.headstrongfoundation.org), it was a “no brainer” to do as much as I can to help them.
