We're participating in the Rocket Companies Community Challenge again this year, and right now, we've got a wildly impactful way to do it!

This week, all donations of $25 or more will be matched by $25! To that end: Donate $25 right now! Then, forward this email and try to get some friends to donate $25. (If you and two friends donate $25, 826 will get $150! If you and five friends each donate $25, 826 will get $300, if you get 10 friends, we get $550, etc.)

Thanks, as ever, for your support! This challenge goes from today until next Monday morning, but don't delay, donate now!

The Tigers are having a FANTASTIC season, so we are EXTRA excited to announce that we're the group charity of the game for Kids Day on Sunday, September 21.

This fundraiser will feature a pre-game lunch event, a swag bag, and tickets to the game against the Atlanta Braves (and right before the playoffs!). We have a limited number of packages to sell. Keep an eye on our website and socials to find out the minute tickets go on sale. GO TIGERS!

What you have heard is true: we moved! We're currently housed inside Eastern Michigan University's College of Education.

Find out alllllllllll the details via our July newsletter or the press release!
