No Child without Toy

No child without toy for holidays....

Westland Community Foundation's Toy drive on 1st December collected unwrapped toys for Salvation Army for the under privileged children.

John Glenn High School Choir provided the best festive cheer to the donors.

We can do so much when the communities come together.

It sure takes a Village...

Thank you for the generosity of Fire Department to bring so many toys.

Thanks to Board members: Jim Godbout, Sharon Scott and Patti Neal of Westland Community Foundation for hosting a beautiful night.

Christmas in July Update

After a brief hiatus due to Covid, the Westland Community Foundation was back and committed to providing resources to the Westland community.

Their first event was their annual "Christmas in July" celebration

. Attendees were asked to bring some unopened bags of food to be given to the The Wayne-Westland Salvation Army to help spread a little Christmas cheer to those who might need it!

The first event with their new partnership with the Local Impact Alliance was a great success and will help them continue to grow and provide assistance to Westland organizations and students.

Since 1996, the Westland Community Foundation has contributed over $1 million to organizations and student scholarships within our community.

Special thanks to the sponsors that included

Wayne County Community College, Priority Waste, Westland Car Care, Shaw Family Foundation, Fausone Bohn, LLP, The Buccilli Group, Dearborn Real Estate, Michigan Chiropractic Specialist, Plante Moran, Mayor William R. Wild, Midwest Recycling, OHM Advisors, Westland Fire Administration, Westland Fire Public Awareness, Westland Police Department Community Partnership.

The Christmas in July was held on 21st July at Hellenic Cultural Center in Westland!
