Rebel Dog Rescue is very special to us—both of our dogs are adopted, and our newest addition, Wilbur (Willy), is a proud Rebel alum. This rescue works tirelessly to reduce the stray dog population in Metro Detroit and save lives, often providing urgent veterinary care when needed. They welcome donations of any kind. https://rebeldogsdetroit.com/

The Empowerment Plan is a Detroit-based charity that tackles homelessness in a two-fold way: it provides meaningful employment and supportive services to people recovering from homelessness and produces innovative sleeping bag coats that are distributed free to unhoused individuals around the world. By hiring and training workers from local shelters, the organization helps participants break the cycle of generational poverty. https://www.empowermentplan.org/home-mobile
