Children need a hospital all their own, where they come first. They need a hospital where specialists hold their hands and pediatric experts are always ready. With more than 40 specialties, the Children’s Hospital of Michigan sees more kids and trains more pediatric medical and surgical experts than any other hospital in the state. For125 years, the Children's Hospital of Michigan is the hospital where all we know and everything we do is just for them.

When the 20 year old Arts League of Michigan (ALM) moved into its new home in July of 2009, it was a victory after a 4-year effort. The ALM no longer had to hold arts activities in scattered Metro Detroit venues-it had its own. The new home is a 19th century building formerly known as the Harmonie Club, in what is now, Paradise Valley. It was re-named the Virgil H. Carr Cultural Arts Center. The public was welcomed to a fall gala. By that time, the ALM programs were up and running. At the heart of ALM are the arts classes for youngsters ages 7 to 18 in creative writing, dance, theater, photography and especially jazz and visual arts. They have been identifiers of the ALM community-focused arts mission since 1991. That recently expanded with the addition of arts classes for adults. To date, add a succession of art exhibitions, celebrity concerts and master classes, art fairs, artists who use free space in which to create, literary and musical entertainment in Beatrice Buck Park, the new gift shop, plus rentals by the public for private affairs ranging from baby showers to fashion shows to corporate parties, seminars/workshops, weddings and more, and you have the active, stimulating, community-friendly center of arts and culture that the Carr Center is today.

Our project is to provide lawn and curb side maintenance for 50 acres of City of Detroit parks and surrounding vacant properties. This task will be performed every 10 days, this work has been performed at the following seven (7) Detroit Parks; Arthur, Hope, Marx, Messmer, Reid, Riordan, and Williams. Our lawn cutting schedule is posted on our website at www.mcgroungscrew.org. Our work ethic is first class. Our standard is top notch. Our working model requires that we at least double cut every lawn, clean up all debris cut that day, empty all trash receptacles, and sweep the walkways, curb side and street areas clean.
Detroit Cares Mentoring is a call to action to every able and caring Black adult to help end the crisis in our community by mentoring our young people who are at risk and by recruiting other caring adults to mentor. NCMM does not offer mentoring services; instead, we encourage local leaders to raise awareness of the need and benefits of mentoring, as well as recruit mentors for organizations that provide mentoring and other youth-support services. We target the needs of Black youngsters, who are greatly overrepresented on long waiting lists for mentors. Unfortunately, Black adult mentors are grossly underrepresented as volunteers for the youngsters in the Black community. NCMM works to fill the pipelines of local organizations with caring Black men and women. Due to the unfortunate underrepresentation of Black adults who volunteer as mentors for the youth in their communities, Black youth are grossly overrepresented on long waiting lists for mentors. NCMM targets the needs of these youth and works to fill the pipelines of local organizations with caring men and women. NCMM is devoted to closing the huge gap between the relatively few Black adult mentors and the millions of vulnerable Black children on mentoring organizations’ waiting lists throughout the nation. It is imperative that we raise awareness of the critical need for mentors and role models among Black adults. We are dedicated to recruiting and connecting mentors with local youth-serving organizations to help guide our struggling children to academic and social success. Research proves that mentoring is a low-cost, high-results solution to a deepening crisis. Mentoring has the power to transform even the most challenged children’s lives.
