Our
Causes
I’ve always believed that sports have the power to bring people together — and that belief starts with something as simple as playing catch. It’s been a part of my life since I was a kid, creating bonds, sparking conversations, and connecting generations.
​
The same goes for animals. I’ve always shared my life with them, and I know the joy, comfort, and unconditional love they bring — and the heartbreak that comes when we lose them.
​
That’s why Play Catch for Good and Sympathy Paws mean so much to me. They’re not just causes I support — they come from the heart. Play Catch for Good is about more than just tossing a ball; it’s about building community. And Sympathy Paws offers comfort to grieving pet owners while giving back to the shelters and rescue organizations doing life-saving work.
​
These are the kinds of things that matter. Small actions. Real connection. Giving back through the things we love. That’s what I stand for — and that’s what Foam Finger Nation is all about.

Play Catch
for Good
At Play Catch for Good, we believe that something as simple as playing catch can change the world. In a time when people are more disconnected than ever, we use the universal language of a tossed ball to bring individuals together — across generations, backgrounds, and differences.
​
Our mission is to encourage meaningful human connection, one throw at a time. Through community events, school programs, partnerships, and spontaneous moments in parks or backyards, we promote play as a powerful tool for empathy, conversation, and joy.
​
Whether it’s between a parent and child, strangers in a park, or teammates on a field, each game of catch is a small act of goodness — a chance to listen, to laugh, to heal, and to belong. We exist to make those moments more common and more impactful, because we know that when people connect, communities strengthen — and when communities strengthen, the world changes for the better.
Sympathy Paws
At Sympathy Paws, we believe pets are more than animals — they are family, companions, and lifelong sources of unconditional love. When one passes, the grief can be profound. We design and send heartfelt sympathy cards to those mourning the loss of a beloved pet, offering a small gesture of comfort, remembrance, and compassion during a deeply personal time.
​
But our mission doesn't stop there. Every card we send helps support the care and protection of animals still waiting for their forever homes. A portion of every purchase is donated to local animal shelters and rescue organizations, helping them provide medical care, shelter, and second chances to pets in need.
​
Sympathy Paws is about honoring love — both the love we’ve lost and the love we can still give. Through words of comfort and acts of kindness, we aim to support grieving pet owners, celebrate the human-animal bond, and strengthen the incredible work of the rescue community.
