This week, several of our students attended Detroit SOUP. Detroit SOUP is a microgranting dinner celebrating and supporting creative projects in Detroit. For a donation $5 attendees receive soup, salad, bread and a vote and hear from four presentations ranging from art, urban agriculture, social justice, social entrepreneurs, education, technology and more. Each presenter has four minutes to share their idea and answer four questions from the audience. At the event, attendees eat, talk, share resources, enjoy art and vote on the project they think benefits the city the most. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn more about local projects happening in the community! We also had our weekly group meal at Buddy's pizza, a local staple that has been service traditional Detroit style pizza since 1946!
