Invest in the Work that
Changes Lives

Corporate, foundation, and faith-based sponsors make it possible for people experiencing
homelessness to work, earn, and rebuild confidence, one shift at a time.

Every sponsor helps fund daily wages, transportation, meals, and
job-site support for Detroiter’s rebuilding their lives through
Better Way Detroit’s four-week employment program.

This is more than charity, it’s a practical way to restore dignity through meaningful work.

Your organization’s support fuels structure, hope, and measurable results.

What Your Support Provides

Wages:
Provides four weeks of paid, supervised work for one participant.

Meals & Transportation:
Ensures each worker has a daily meal and reliable transportation to and from their worksite.

Tools & Supplies:
Equips participants with materials and protective gear for community projects.

All sponsors are recognized during our annual community gathering - attended by local shelters, church leaders, neighborhood organizations, and the press - where we share stories of those whose lives were changed through your support.

This isn’t a transaction; it’s a shared effort to restore dignity through work.

We’d love to align your company or foundation with our mission.
