ONE = TWO
Sponsoring one means another doesn’t have to wait.

Give in Someone’s Honor

Honor a teacher who saw you, a grandparent who held you, or someone you miss. We’ll send them, or their family, a note letting them know.

Other ways to give: mail a check or ask your employer about matching gifts, or give through a donor-advised fund.

Why give?

  • Prevention costs less than a crisis.

    It’s easier to help a child be understood at five than to undo a label at fifteen.

  • One adult reaches many kids.

    When a parent, teacher, or coach learns to read behavior, every child around them feels the difference.

  • Healing should never be a privilege.

    Your gift keeps our community sessions free, so cost is never the reason a family misses out.

  • It stays right here.

    Your donations stay with families, schools, and neighborhoods across Metro Detroit.

  • It takes a herd.

    Elephants raise their young together. When one calf struggles, the whole herd leans in. Giving is how you lean in.

  • Your gift works twice.

    Your gift works twice. Every paid training funds a free one for an under-resourced community. Supporting E&W helps that promise keep its word.
