2. Introduction
• In addition to his work with SFG Asset Advisors, former Belvedere resident
Michael T. Jackson serves on the board of directors for the American
Ireland Fund. Michael T. Jackson was a first-generation immigrant from
Ireland, and he is passionate about the work done by the organization. The
support it offers to boxing clubs throughout Ireland has been particularly
important.
Many communities throughout Ireland have been challenged by a lack of
facilities for youth, which can lead to young people getting in trouble. With
help from the fund, some of these communities have funded boxing clubs
that offer young people the chance to engage in an activity that teaches
them pride, responsibility, and discipline.
The O’Hanlon Park Amateur Boxing and Fitness Club is one example of a
club that has been helped by the organization’s work. It received a gift from
the organization in 2010 that enabled it to purchase new equipment, so
more children could get involved in sparring without having to wait for a
turn with shared gear. Similar donations have been made to a number of
boxing clubs throughout Ireland.
