Michigan Green Industry Association (MGIA) Day of Service: Beautifying Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries’ Veteran Housing
The Michigan Green Industry Association (MGIA) selected Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries’ 211 Glendale Veteran Housing as the recipient for its 2024 Day of Service. MGIA members donated their time, equipment, and expertise to beautify the grounds, with activities including bed cleanup, fertilizing, mowing, raking, hardscaping, tree trimming, tree injection, mulching, and planting.
They installed a place for horseshoes, a fire pit, vegetable garden, apple trees, warming lamps, birdfeeders, a walking path, and a new grill in the courtyard of the building!
They also received a new flag for the front of the building that was raised during a flag ceremony led by the Renaissance High School ROTC to honor veterans in attendance.
This is the second year MGIA chose a Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries location for their Day of Service.
