Kresge Foundation
Jun. 13, 2016
The Kresge Foundation is a $3.6 billion private, national foundation that works to expand opportunities in America's cities through grantmaking and social investing in arts and culture, education, environment, health, human services, and community development in Detroit. In collaboration with our nonprofit, public, private and philanthropic partners, we help create pathways for vulnerable people to improve their life circumstances and join the economic mainstream. “Creating opportunity for low-income people is a hallmark of our work at The Kresge Foundation,” says Rip Rapson, president and CEO. “Our progams reflect the inflection points where we think we can actually make a difference in the life trajectories of people who are poor, disadvantaged or underserved in fundamental ways.” Our Mission Established by Sebastian S. Kresge in 1924: To promote human progress. “The brilliance of Sebastian Kresge is best exhibited in his guiding wish that the foundation ‘promote human progress.’ It is the responsibility of the board and staff to interpret his maxim and to take the foundation where it needs to go to be relevant in the 21st century. Redefining ourselves as a strategic philanthropy represents our efforts to fulfill this responsibility.” ~ ELAINE D. ROSEN, CHAIRWOMAN, KRESGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES For more information: |

Sign up with Bill Roy to either provide food for the residents at Hope Warming Center or to help out serving that night. For those who are serving, we usually arrive at approximately 7:15 p.m., which gives us plenty of time to set up. Dinner usually starts at 8:00, and we are cleaned up and leave by 9:00. Due to the fact that the HWC has a small kitchen and we have a tremendous turnout, it would be easier if Bill Roy could come by and pick up items from those who are preparing food but not serving. Please let him know. |
