Why Mike Mussina?

In today’s media-driven society a deluge of information, sights and sounds compete for the attention of our children. The Internet, television, the print media and Hollywood all aim a sizeable portion of their products towards children.  And because of this information deluge it is difficult to get on the “radar screens” of children without a “hook” of some sort. And in many cases this “hook” is a celebrity or professional athlete. And of course this is because children look up to, idolize and “worship” our professional athletes.  Professional athletes have become “role models” for America’s youth.

American society has always had a love affair with professional athletes and professional sports. And certainly, in the world of professional sports, no franchise has been more successful and celebrated than the New York Yankees. Even people who claim not to be sports fans recognize the name of the New York Yankees. The New York Yankees transcend sports and are part of the American culture.

Professional sports embody teamwork, accomplishment, and a commitment to excellence. In American society perhaps no other industry represents the pinnacle of achievement more than professional sports.

Mike Mussina’s career has demonstrated this commitment to excellence and achievement. Mike Mussina, through The Mike Mussina Foundation, is using his considerable clout and record of accomplishments to direct the nation’s youth towards education and giving back to the community.

Mike Mussina and The Mike Mussina Foundation have partnered with Safe and Sound Productions, Inc. with the hope that Mike’s celebrity will bring attention to these programs and, at the same time, attract children to the messages these programs promote.
