11th Annual SAY Detroit Radiothon raises $1,866,241!
“It's been an incredible outpouring of generosity in a year when people are very, very challenged. You would never know that the economy is so rough and times are so tough in America by the giving that our audience did today ... It just speaks to the fact that even in troubled times, Detroiters put other people first, and Michiganders put other people first, even beyond their own difficulties. And I'm so proud to be a part of this community and this event every year.”
— Mitch Albom, founder of SAY Detroit and host of the annual radiothon
SAY Detroit was founded in 2006 by best-selling author and journalist Mitch Albom. We're providing pathways to success for Detroiters in need, and we're doing it with a focus on solving learning, health care, and housing challenges.
