What do we do? 

Roots to Rise Detroit connects people. We believe that collaboration leads to change. We believe that supporting small businesses, artists, and makers is how we create sustainable communities and meaningful places to live.

​

How do we do it? 

We are creative. We are thoughtful. We use our network and our experience to bring together individuals and groups that would benefit from knowing and working with one another. We listen to the needs of the community and design our programs  with their benefit at the forefront.

 

Why do we do it? 

We believe that thoughtful human connection and service to others and our community is the meaning of life. We believe that Detroit has a deep history worth sharing and exploring, and certainly should be understood and respected by businesses and people working and living here.
