$20,000 of Goodness
Each year we offer Motor City Wesley students a chance to participate in conspiracies of goodness. Fueled by $100 micro-grants to each student, these are missional, discipleship and witness projects that help make God's justice and grace real in the lives of Detroiters and those living around the world. Regular meetings of students working together to design their projects serve as the small group connection point for MotoWesley. See below for a current list of conspiracies or launch your own here.

Ellyn
Hello! I am a Senior at the University of Michigan - Dearborn and I am very nearly done with my BA in Philosophy. I love working with children of all ages and making them feel safe and loved unconditionally, I am a substitute teacher so I get a small firsthand look at what’s going on in some of our school systems. My conspiracy of goodness project will go directly to benefiting the teachers of Detroit Public Schools in order to create a safe, inviting learning environment for the children of our community.
Gretchen
