There’s a lot of talk but not enough walk when it comes to revitalizing Detroit neighborhoods. Detroiters have all the talent they need, but many aren’t getting access to all the opportunities they deserve. Therefore, Life Remodeled repurposes vacant school buildings into one-stop hubs of opportunity for entire families to thrive. We fill these iconic buildings with the best and brightest nonprofit organizations who are providing youth programs, workforce development, and human services to tens of thousands of students and community members. We help our nonprofit tenants collaborate and create far greater life transformation together than was previously possible alone. Together, we ensure: 1. Detroit students perform at/above grade level in math and reading 2. Families have access to essential health and wellness services 3. Community members obtain higher paying jobs and achieve economic self-sufficiency Each year, Life Remodeled mobilizes thousands of volunteers to remove blight and beautify several square miles in only six days.
