What an incredible day at ViewFest 2026: Bloom Forward at the Detroit Zoo!๐
The Pontiac Community Foundation and Prevention Pontiac were proud to join Words of Hope 4 Life for the largest mental health and prevention festival in the world, connecting thousands of attendees with valuable resources, services, and community partners.
We were especially proud to see Pontiac so well represented, with local organizations, volunteers, and residents coming together alongside partners from across Metro Detroit to promote healthier, safer, and more connected communities.โจ
Through our M1 Mobility Initiative, we were able to provide free transportation for Pontiac families to and from the Detroit Zoo, removing transportation barriers so they could attend this free community event and enjoy complimentary admission to the zoo. It was a day filled with learning, connection, resources, and family fun.๐
Thank you to Words of Hope 4 Life for hosting such an impactful event. As this year's theme reminds us, let's continue to Bloom Forward by removing barriers, creating opportunities, and growing stronger together as a community.๐
