Welcome Brilliant Detroit!
At Taproots, we rely on partnerships with other non-profit organizations in Michigan to help us reach kids who will benefit from our programs and camperships. We are thrilled to announce a new partnership with Brilliant Detroit in Detroit, MI. “Brilliant Detroit is thrilled to partner with Taproots at Camp Walden this year! Through this partnership, children in Detroit will be experiencing summer camp away from home for the first time! We are excited to see how they grow and learn new things this summer!” said Director of Partnerships, Carmen Colon.
Brilliant Detroit is dedicated to building kid-success families and neighborhoods where families with children 0-8 have what they need to be school-ready, healthy, and stable. They do this by providing proven programming and support year-round out of Brilliant Detroit homes in high-need neighborhoods. This summer, 20 kids from Brilliant Detroit will attend the Taproots Mini-Week program in August along with some staff members from Brilliant Detroit. They will join kids from the Boys & Girls Clubs in Flint, MI who’ll be participating in the Mini-Week program for the third year.
