Community Service

Friendship Circle of Michigan is a non-profit based in the Metro-Detroit area. The goal is to provide every individual with special needs the support, friendship and inclusion that they deserve. Volunteers are paired with a child who has special needs for a 1-2 hour program after-school or Sundays. Together, they form a friendship in one of our weekly programs. Programs include teaching the participants basketball, engaging in arts and crafts and going to fun activities such as miniature putt putt and laser tag.

Share Detroit is a website for nonprofits to list their needs and for volunteers to find where their skill sets and passions align with local organizations. These requested needs can be fulfilled by donations or through volunteering your time.

Check out the volunteer opportunities on the website. Some of the needs include mentoring at Big Brothers, Big Sisters, donating to the Ronald McDonald House, working on environmental policy with Detroit Hives and hockey coaching for the Michigan Warriors Hockey Program.

The Angel Pillow Project benefits newly diagnosed breast cancer patients at Beaumont Health. These special pillows are given to every newly diagnosed breast cancer patient seen within three Beaumont campuses. The pillows provide comfort to patients following surgery for the drive home, and later at home, while resting or sleeping during recovery. Participating in this program provides a sense of giving back to the community, putting a smile on a breast cancer patient who may have a daunting diagnosis and a battle to overcome. Students will need to email sharingandcaring@beaumont.org, or call 248-551-8585 to show their intent to participate and then Beaumont will communicate through project completion with the students.
