Had an amazing day with the SHARE Detroit community for Together Detroit and at kintsugivillagedetroit, and it was the perfect rooftop setting.

We shared our Money Talks and created vision boards together mapping out dreams, goals, action steps, and gratitude along the way. We’re so grateful for experiences like this that let us connect with more of our community.💛

72 books donated to Kemeny Recreation Center in Southwest Detroit. 📚✨

This one was special because Kemeny was the rec center we attended most as kids, and now we get to give back to the next generation of young readers and leaders in that same community.

More books are coming this summer as we continue encouraging reading, learning, and imagination.

Read our latest newsletter for practical ways to turn this summer into a season of learning, growth, and financial wellness.

March Mania '26 was an incredible day at University Prep Art & Design High School!

Big congratulations to our champions: JFK (1st), The Parkers (2nd), BJ (3rd), and Rookie Contract Challenge winner Jovan Philson.

Every year we aim higher. The Rookie Contract Challenge? That was us delivering on that promise.

None of this happens without our incredible partners. THANK YOU!
