DABO Detroit in partnership with personal injury law firm Goodman Acker, is once again working to make the holidays brighter for Detroit families through its annual “Make Christmas Very Merry” program. The initiative provides toys and gifts to underserved children throughout Detroit, ensuring every child experiences the magic and joy of the holiday season.
This year’s program is made possible through the support of New Destiny and Choose Healthy Life, with additional contributions from Comerica Bank and Hollywood Greektown Casino. Amazon has made a significant contribution to this year’s effort, helping expand the reach of the program and ensuring that even more Detroit families can experience a joyful and memorable Christmas.
“Every child deserves to feel the joy of Christmas, regardless of circumstance,” said Rev. Horace Sheffield III, CEO of DABO Detroit. “This program is about more than toys; it’s about showing families that their community cares. Partnerships like the one we have with Goodman Acker demonstrate what’s possible when organizations come together for the greater good.”
“Supporting this event is something our team looks forward to every year,” said Barry Goodman, founding partner of Goodman Acker. “We’re proud to stand alongside DABO in giving back to the city that means so much to us. Together, we can help bring hope and happiness to Detroit families this holiday season.”
Since 2018, the “Make Christmas Very Merry” campaign continues to grow through the support of local partners, volunteers and community members who share a commitment to lifting up Detroit’s children.
Monetary donations can be made by visiting www.dabodetroitinc.com/donate/. Supporters can also shop DABO’s Amazon wish list to provide toys and gifts directly. DABO wants to expand the program this year, with the goal of supporting 1,500 families.
