Educating Detroit for a Brighter Future
Teach 4 Detroit is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping students in Detroit get ahead and achieve success. The present educational system in Detroit, due to restrictions on resources, is unable to adequately cater to students' needs. Every child should have the opportunity to achieve their academic and career goals. But it's very difficult to figure everything out on your own, so we've developed the Teach 4 Detroit program to help students get from where they are to where they want to be. (http://bit.ly/GYwUpO)
