Mike Smith Live Shows Coyotes There is Another Way

MADERA - WHO IS MIKE SMITH? This is the question many of Madera High School students may have had Wednesday morning but after two rallys in the Joe Flores Gym a different way of thinking was instilled into their heads by a man who learned the true meaning of “I am my brother’s keeper.”

From his humble beginnings in Imperial, NE, Mike Smith has since founded two non-profits and influenced hundreds of thousands of youth in schools nationwide. Mike lives his life as a “professional teenager” that doubles as a youth motivational speaker and action sports personality. While other professional speakers struggle to remain current, Mike stays relevant by talking about what he’s doing, not what he’s done.

 

As the Executive Director for THE BAY, one of the few non-profit skateparks in the country, Mike works with young people from all walks of life, encouraging them to pursue their passions and live out their dreams.

He is also the Executive Director of Skate For Change (SFC), an organization that empowers young skateboarders to help the homeless in their communities. SFC chapters have now spread to major cities nationwide.

Whether it’s motivating students to change the culture of their school; or teaching others how to start and maintain successful organizations; or giving back to the homeless and lesser fortunate across the country; Mike has the experience and expertise to inspire others to be extraordinary.

Your life isn’t ordinary. You matter. What you will do with your life will boil down to one question:

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE REMEMBERED FOR?

This is the question that was asked of the students on Madera High Wednesday morning. Let’s see how they answer it in the next couple years.
