                  Established in 1997 by the family and friends of thirty year 
                  old Chris Maki. Chris was randomly attacked, robbed and stabbed 
                  to death while walking to his apartment in Charlotte, NC on 
                  November 5, 1997. 
                  The mission of the foundation is to educate all, especially 
                    the young, about the occurrence and the consequences of violence 
                    in our society today.

                     Exciting 
                      New Program called Triggered! 
                    A On the 25th anniversary of Chris murder we partnered 
                      with Plymouth State Universitys TIGER program to fund 
                      the development of a new program entitled Triggered. We 
                      also recently received a grant with the help of Chris 
                      cousin Paul Morris. The company Paul works for, White Mountain 
                      Capital, Inc awarded the foundation $10,000 to bring the 
                      program to area schools.  
                       
                      The Triggered program is designed for the upper middle and 
                      high school student and focuses on addiction: drug and alcohol. 
                      While Chris himself was not involved with drugs in any way; 
                      those who attacked and murdered him were addicted. For 25 
                      plus years, we his family and friends have suffered the 
                      consequences of their addiction.  
                       
                      Triggered launched in the Fall of 2023 and the feedback 
                      has been extremely positive.
