Eastside Community Network

Donate $40 for our 40th Anniversary!

Since 1984, Eastside Community Network (ECN) has worked tirelessly to develop people, places, and plans for sustainable neighborhood growth on Detroit's eastside. Through all of our work, we focus on creating programs and resources that center the needs of East Side residents and amplify their voices regarding the development of their communities.

For over 40 years, ECN has implemented various programs aimed at improving housing, economic opportunities, education and health outcomes for our residents. Today, we lead initiatives that promote social cohesion, neighborhood sustainability, community participation, and resident empowerment -- with a focus on the following areas of impact:

Climate Equity

Community Economic Development

Health & Wellness

Power Building & Advocacy

Sustainable Housing

Youth Development

As we celebrate our 40th Anniversary this year, we're excited to raise vital funds to support the community resources and programs we provide through Stoudamire Wellness Hub -- our 17,000 sq ft community center that houses ECN's offices and hosts hundreds of weekly events, activities and resources for eastside residents.

By donating to ECN through the Rocket Community Challenge, you will help us continue provide services such as fitness classes; arts classes; free health screenings and medical services; affordable food distribution; housing assistance and repair; college and career preparatory resources; climate resilience resources; and entrepreneurship support to residents in our community.

Thank you for supporting ECN and our community!
