FOCUS Detroit

Mission: To serve the poor by bringing together Orthodox Christian churches and community partners to provide Food, Occupation, Clothing, Understanding, and Shelter and other assistance to address the needs of local communities.

The Fellowship of Orthodox Christians United to Serve, an Orthodox Christian nonprofit, works to address the ultimate cause of poverty in the world: disconnection from Christ and disconnection from one another. It does this by providing people with opportunities to serve alongside and discover their kinship with others while addressing needs in their local communities.

As an expression of Christ’s love, FOCUS exists to bring together Orthodox Christian churches, communities, and partners to empower children experiencing poverty to succeed in school. We partner with over 80 schools and organizations serving kids and receive support from over 40 churches, businesses and organizations.
