In a world where representation matters more than ever, empowering historically excluded youth begins with expanding their horizons and exposing them to diverse experiences. From the vibrant streets of Motown to the tranquil shores of Lake Michigan, from the wild wonders of Northern Michigan's camping grounds to the historic halls of Detroit, every journey is a stepping stone towards self-discovery and opportunity.

We believe in the power of exposure. That's why we take our participants on enriching adventures, whether it's exploring the vast array of wildlife at the zoo, feeling the rhythm of Motown Records, or camping under the stars in Northern Michigan. Each outing is a chance for our youth to see themselves reflected in the world around them, to feel a sense of belonging and possibility.

But our mission doesn't stop at leisure activities. We understand the importance of academic and professional guidance. That's why we organize visits to colleges and trade schools, opening doors to higher education and vocational training. We bring in esteemed professionals, including tenured PhDs, to educate our students about post-secondary opportunities and funding, ensuring that no dream is out of reach.

From renting out entire movie theaters for groundbreaking films like Black Panther to hosting pottery and painting classes, we strive to nurture creativity and confidence in our youth. We believe that by showing them what is possible, we can help them become the architects of their own futures.

Join us in shaping a world where every historically excluded youth, particularly youth of color, see themselves as they truly are: capable, empowered, and destined for greatness. Because when you can see it, you can be it.
