A cause for the greater good of Detroit.

Support us, support community.

By supporting A Place of Refuge, you are changing one life at a time by preventing homelessness of Detroit’s youth. Each dollar spent with A Place Of Refuge works to not only provide shelter, but also meals, clothing, and education. All of these things are necessary to make the changes we want to see in our youth. Without one of these aspects, the system does not work. That’s why we provide one program to encompass all the aspects our youth needs to feel security, direction, and support. Only then, are we able to see the positive outcomes that we’ve witnessed in so many young men that come through A Place Of Refuge.

Transforming individuals today, transforms Detroit’s future.

Our sponsors understand that systematic change in our community starts with the individual youth. First, we must support our youth. By supporting these individuals and providing them with positive mentorship we are able to change their futures for the better. These are the same individuals that turn around and become mentors for the next generation. For better or worse, our youth will always look toward adults to guide them. At A Place of Refuge, we connect youth with the right guidance for a positive future.
