Ten years of impact. One unforgettable night. ✨

On Saturday, we held our Annual Dinner fundraising gala celebrating a decade of investment at Detroit Children’s Fund. Over the past 10 years, we’ve made thoughtful investments in public schools across Detroit - impacting tens of thousands of students.

Thank you to everyone who has helped shape the last decade, and continues to help create what comes next. đź’™

Ten years ago Detroit Children’s Fund received its first donation, sparked by the vision and commitment of our founding board members. Like a ripple across water, that initial moment of generosity has grown outward: impacting thousands of students, strengthening schools, and creating opportunities far beyond where it began.
This year's gala, The Ripple Effect, celebrates a decade of investing in public education in Detroit, and the collective force that made it possible.

We are just 37 days away from our Annual Dinner, Founders Ball. If you’re interested in being part of this moment and making a lasting impact, we invite you to become a sponsor. Please contact Gabrielle Boyd for more information.
