As 2019 marks the 52nd year anniversary of the 1967 Detroit uprising, Life Remodeled and our partners continue to invest in the neighborhood surrounding Central High School and the Durfee Innovation Society, in the community where Detroit’s civil unrest began. Our collective impact serves not only as a powerful commemoration of the progress that has been made, but also the progress we continue to strive toward.
In the past, Life Remodeled made only one year investments into neighborhoods, however in 2017 we decided to commit a minimum of four years per community. Therefore, we will remain focused on the Durfee/Central community until at least the year 2020.
Volunteers are needed to mow, cut, and rake the Life Remodeled Durfee Innovation Society property. Interested volunteers must be able to operate a zero-turn mower, lawnmower and weed whip.
