Local nonprofits are doing incredible things! Every day we learn of impactful programs and see the powerful ways people are stepping up to help. This month, we encourage you to take the time to discover a new-to-you nonprofit making the change you wish to see in metro Detroit. Dive into nonprofit profiles here at ShareDetroit.org and get connected.

As the holiday season approaches and you look forward to the deals offered on Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday to help treat yourself and your loved ones, don’t forget to support local nonprofits on Giving Tuesday. Giving Tuesday is celebrated each year in the United States on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. It marks the beginning of a season of giving. You can use Giving Tuesday as an opportunity to learn about and contribute to the good being done in your community.

As we mentioned last month in our newsletter, SHARE Detroit’s executive director Janette Philips made an incredible connection between two of our nonprofit partners: A Beautiful Me and A Girl Like Me. I was able to speak to Karen Palka of A Beautiful Me and Tyra Moore of A Girl Like Me to learn more about what led up to their meeting and what came of it.
Every Michigander knows about the perils of our winters: the icy roads, the potential for power outages, the need to dress in layers. The winter requires extra vigilance to keep ourselves safe–and to look out for others. We asked Mittens For Detroit’s Executive Director Wendy Shepherd to tell us about why it’s so important to support nonprofits like hers in the winter months.
