THANK YOU
FOR STANDING
WITH US

Detroit’s young people face unique challenges, in neighborhoods where economic opportunities and access to high-quality education is limited. Together,
we can empower the next generation of Detroit’s
leaders, innovators, and changemakers. 

Every donation directly supports student stipends, meals, and mentorship.
