COMMUNITY PARTNERS
This is the tenth year of operating the Fueling Kids’ Futures-Wyandotte program for the children in our community. We are currently feeding students throughout our 4 Elementary Schools, Middle and High School. We would like to expand the program to our three Special Education Schools as well.
- $160 provides one child food every weekend (6 meals) for an entire school year
- A full year of funding must be raised in advance to start a new school in the program
- We are currently feeding 500 students – $50,000 annually is needed to maintain our current program.
- 59% of all students in Wyandotte qualify for the Fueling Kids’ Futures program.
- We hope to eventually expand to all schools in Wyandotte as funding is raised.
Please visit this website monthly to see the progress we are making and for upcoming events. More volunteers and community partners are needed to expand and maintain our program. Additional volunteers are needed for ongoing fundraising.
Portofino Detroit River Cruise
June 2023
We plan on repeating this event in 2023, so look for information in the spring of 2023 and get you tickets early so the boat does not leave the dock without you. This event is a sell-out every year.
Wyandotte Street Fair – Lemonade Stand
July 2023
Come support Fueling Kids’ Futures-Wyandotte by stopping by the Lemonade stand and purchasing a cold glass of lemonade.
Fall Event
November 2023
Plans are underway for an event to be held in early November. Check back at the start of summer for more details.
