Abandoned In Detroit project and 313FAD is pulling talent together for a fashion show at Artist Village to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of Blightbusters.org.
Our participation in the celebration is creating a bridge with a long-standing charity. Watch for additional partnerships with organizations involved in the renaissance of Detroit, uplifting the environment and the people here. The forums are open and topics can be created for new discussions. We had the beginnings of a relationship with the Detroit Economic Growth Corporation, and the contact I had there has since left. I would like to form a new link into the organization, perhaps through a different angle.
I could use the assistance of anyone that enjoys researching where to find money through grants and charities. I have leads to chase but little time to chase them. If we can move the project into a sponsored activity we can keep fees low, or eliminate them.
Another partnership in forming is with the newly developed Better Detroit Youth Movement, and through them various youth support organizations.
As most of you know the best way to reach me is by phone at 248-632-6156. If you are interested in being a coordinator on the project let me know. You have to be self motivated and an open listener.
