(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 31, 2009 ) Detroit, MI – Robert Shumake, founder of Inheritance Capital Group, Inc, donates a portion of his proceeds to the Shumake Scholarship Relays, now in their 6h year. When asked why he started the foundation, Shumake said, “I ran track in high school and college. I grew up on the East side of Detroit and we didn’t always have the best of things. In my travels and experiences, I recognized that a lot of kids don’t have many opportunities, so when I began investing in real estate, I decided to give back to the community by helping families send their kids to college. Eventually, I decided to institutionalize and I began the Shumake Family Foundation.”

The Shumake Scholarship Relays event is a track and field event that has attracted kids from as far as Toronto. Robert Shumake is busy at work planning the 6th annual Shumake Scholarship Relays event that will be held in Detroit in April of 2010. Recognition, awards, medals, trophies and scholarships will be given for athletic abilities and academic achievement.

Shumake receives daily emails from parents and kids thanking him for his help. A lot of them return and volunteer to help out at the relays event each year. Shumake said, “This is one of the top meets in the nation and the best run track meet in America. It gives me the chance to give back and be a kid again.”

The Robert S. Shumake Scholarship Relays started out as the vision of a Detroit business owner Robert S. Shumake. As an all city track and field competitor, Robert Shumake understands the significance and the impact that organized team sports can have on a young person. He attributes some of his many business achievements to the positive experiences he had as a member of the Edwin Denby High School's track team. Learn more at http://www.shumakerelays.com/
