NeighborHUB Program
The Yunion is 𝘚𝘖 excited that the Detroit Regional Chamber and General Motors announced their fourth cohort of awardees for the NeighborHUB grant program! From the program’s largest-ever applicant pool, we are honored to be an awardee. 🎉
The 𝐍𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐇𝐔𝐁 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 is an annual, collaborative effort between the Chamber and GM, that is designed to empower residents in Detroit, Hamtramck, or Highland Park to affect change in their neighborhoods through physical presence and innovative programming.
This grant is to assist us with creating and building our courtyard space to beautify the neighborhood, invite in the community, and host outdoor events and programs! 🌱
