With 60% of Detroit’s children living in poverty, many problems exist for them and their families. Many are from single parent homes or homes with both parents working to make ends meet. This leaves many children home alone after school lacking the attention and resources needed for a productive school year. Many dangers await them such as crime, hunger and loneliness.

Fortunate Kids is there for their support and to help raise these kids into productive adults, but we need your help to finance this undertaking! Food, staff, supplies and a safe place to stay all require payment. Detroit’s children need a helping hand and we will love for you to do it. Please return volunteering application as soon as possible to get started this school year.
