The Light in Everything Project

The Light in Everything Project aims to create care packages for the homeless individuals living in Detroit.

They’re looking for recommendations on areas to distribute these packages. Some areas already getting distribution are Michigan Central Train Station, Rosa Parks Transit Station, Underground x, The Church by the Detroit Mercy Law Building, Mack and McNichols, Eastern Market, and Woodward.

If you have any information in regards to areas that are populated with homeless individuals, please contact the project leaders via text message at 313-703-0090
