A year ago, brothers Michael and Chuck Skelly presented a $250 donation to the Chautauqua County Rural Ministry after organizing a successful fundraising tailgate event. This initiative not only helped raise funds but also sent a powerful message of community solidarity.
Michael and Chuck aimed to uplift their community through the “Brothers Breaking Tables” event, supporting two local organizations: JFT Recovery and Veterans Support Services in Pennsylvania and the Rural Ministry in Dunkirk.
“We are incredibly thankful for the support from our community, which goes beyond us to the people we aim to assist,” Michael shared after their event. “It’s what Bills Mafia represents – a spirit of service.”
This time, the community gets to rally behind one of their own, as Michael Skelly is competing for the esteemed title of Mr. Health & Fitness. Currently in the quarterfinal voting stage, the winner will have the honor of being featured in Muscle & Fitness magazine, along with a $20,000 grand prize.
What drives Skelly’s commitment to health and fitness is the realization he has been given a “second chance at a peaceful and healthy life.” He aspires to inspire others within his community by embracing a vibrant and active lifestyle, hoping to instill hope in those who are navigating their own paths toward self-improvement.

Should Skelly win the Mr. Health & Fitness title, he plans to donate 10% of his earnings to the Chautauqua County Rural Ministry, another 10% to Beating the Odds Recovery & Veterans Services, and another portion to Susquehanna Recovery Initiative Inc.
As of the latest update, Skelly is currently in second place in the voting, which closes Thursday at 10 p.m. Semifinal voting will follow promptly. Votes can be cast online at mrhealthandfit.com, with the first vote being free and additional votes available for a charitable contribution.
