Every Saturday, on the same street corner, the nonprofit group Elevate Detroit hosts a CommuniD BBQ for the homeless. For eight years, the BBQ has run entirely on pure generosity. It feeds almost 200 homeless people every week in downtown Detroit. This gathering has become a staple in the neighborhood and an incredible testament to Detroit pride.
Now, due to new property restructuring, the BBQ is losing its location. The local community has come to rely on this gathering as a not only a source of food but a place of support and positive encouragement. Let’s give the BBQ a permanent home!
The truth is that several years back I actually ate there. I didn’t have a burger as a visitor; I had a burger as a poor man whom did not have enough money to eat. Malory Brown and her crew save lives one hamburger at a time and this is probably one of the most just causes I am able to think of in recent memory.
PLEASE VISIT THEIR CROWDRISE PAGE TODAY AND DONATE!

Now, due to new property restructuring, the BBQ is losing its location leaving hundreds of Detroit’s homeless without a reliable place to get food, support and their sense of community.
Mallory is CrowdRising to give the BBQ a permanent home.
CrowdRise is a Go Fund Me type of project which puts 97 cents on the dollar into the hands of those raising money for their Cause. #OpISIS, which is a Project of Ghost Security and dear to the heart of Foreclosurepedia, utilizes CrowdRise as does several of the Foreclosurepedia Media Institute Projects. Instead of conventional crowd funding programs, even if the goal is not met, the money still goes to the Cause!
