"The b.good family foundation exemplifies everything we look for in a recipient. A passion for consistently supporting the local community and providing funds to people with great ideas to do good," says Sharon Olson, president of Olson Communications.

From the beginning, b.good always hoped their restaurant business could be something that made their communities a little better. The mission of the b.good family foundation is to use micro-grants to help inspired individuals improve their communities. The b.good family foundation is in its fourth year and has had the opportunity to provide funds to individuals with a passion for making their communities better.
