The Auburn Hills campus of Western Michigan University Cooley Law School will hold its annual charity event, FUNDS – Financing the Undergraduate Needs of Detroit Scholars, on Saturday, May 20.

It is administered by Detroit College Promise, a non-profit organization connected to the Detroit Public Schools Foundation.
This year’s event will include live entertainment and a silent auction.
Tickets are $30 per person or $200 per group of eight.The event takes place at the WMU-Cooley Auburn Hills campus, Room 145, 2630 Featherstone Road.
