West Grand Boulevard Collaborative Through this organization, we give assurance that we shall coalesce our intellectual, financial and h In October, 2004, Mildred Hunt Robbins and Tommie E.

Robbins, Jr., telephoned their neighbors with the hope of addressing community issues on West Grand Boulevard. The first call to Henry Ford Hospital was directed to Security Officer, Captain John Weigle, and resulted in the scheduling of the first meeting of what would become the West Grand Boulevard Collaborative, a not-for-profit 501(c) (3) corporation ( #37-15604170) registered with the Internal

Revenue Service on June 13, 2005. The founding meeting was hosted by HFH in the Clara Ford Pavilion on October 28, 2004. The meeting ended with a consensus that our shared concerns would best be addressed through cohesive community action. Since then, the WGBC has met on the 3rd Thursday of each month at 2:30 p.m. Our monthly meetings are hosted by WGBC Members on a rotating basis. See meeting schedule.
