Improving the lives of Detroit’s neediest citizens, at every age, through shelter, food, medical care, volunteer efforts and education, like @sayplaydetroit
Today in hashtag#saydetroit history: Third and final in a series of newspaper columns by @mitchalbom that humbly asked if we could turn a Super Bowl weekend of help for Detroit's homeless citizens into a full winter of care.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT POSSIBLE. We're celebrating two decades of success serving more than 4,000 people each year with learning, health care, and housing programs.
20 years ago today, the idea behind SAY Detroit — which stands for Super All Year — was born in a column in @freep by @mitchalbom. As we look back at our humble beginnings and celebrate ongoing service to our community by providing pathways to success for Detroiters in need...
One week ago today we announced an investment in Detroit's east side during the 14th annual Radiothon. Meet the intersection of the past and future. Meet the SAY Detroit Play Center at St. Cecilia. Thank you @Local4News https://t.co/K7LZXjJenR
Bummed you missed out on some auction items? You can still pick up a few more incentives while the event is still open, but only for a limited time:

Last week, the Dixon family moved into their new home via our Working Homes / Working Families program. Single mom Breanna works two jobs after moving back to Detroit from Arizona, rented a home under a friend's name and was in need of stability, and a safer neighborhood.
@SpartanRyan He's busy raising funds for #SAYDetroit today! As a Spartan fan, you might enjoy some auctions on offer right now, including a Pat Fitzgerald Meet & greet at practice and official MSU basketballs signed by Tom Izzo!

Our volunteers power everything we do. And they're working very hard today! Meet Ranger, a 10-month-old yellow lab who is currently in training for Leader Dogs for the Blind in Rochester, with “puppy raisers’’ Karen and Scott Gilkey (here for the 4th year in a row).

And then of course, none of the call center would work without Mary Williams and Jean Yee, who are here for 15 hours overseeing shifts of volunteers from A Time to Help, SAY Detroit's core volunteer group,
