Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries Receives $25,000 From SAY Detroit
DRMM received a $25,000 donation from our partner SAY Detroit raised from their 11th annual SAY Detroit Radiothon. They distributed $1.8 million to 34 local charities (including DRMM) at a ceremony held on April 4th.
“This is one of the best days each and every year,” Mitch Albom, co-founder said. “Helping other like-minded nonprofits in our region who help others is very meaningful and we know the money will be put to good use in their respective operations.”
Our own CEO Dr. Chad Audi started Say Detroit in partnership with Mitch Albom in 2006 and is a current board member. SAY Detroit as an organization that focuses on providing a better life for individuals who are or may have struggled with health, housing or food insecurity.
The donation will benefit Genesis House II Shelter for Women.
