DETROIT PUBLIC SCHOOLS
HENRY FORD HIGH SCHOOL
A little over a mile from our church is Henry Ford High School where students work hard on their High School education. For some the lack of a school uniform can keep them from starting or continuing their classes. The faculty of HFHS does not want the need for proper attire to be a deterrent for any of its students and neither do we!
Please register to donate new school uniforms for the students of Henry Ford High School. You will receive an email detailing their specific uniform needs with instructions on how to donate.
DETROIT BLIGHT BUSTERS
