The mission to help the Motor Cityโs most vulnerable population
For todayโs โHeart of Detroitโ series, Mitch Albom showcased Motor City Mitten Mission. He first visited the charity two years ago when they were primarily focused on providing mats and pillows to our cityโs homeless population. On top of that, Motor City Mitten Mission is now helping unsheltered people transition into housing. The challenges for Detroitโs homeless population have changed and Motor City Mission is trying to meet them. It is because of their tireless outreach efforts, that Motor City Mitten Mission is constantly in need for volunteer drivers as well as financial support.
