With all the problems it has Detroit could easily be written, and has been by many people outside of the city. Those who live in and around the city have not, and most will not. Instead of giving up on Detroit thousands of citizens have begun putting in their own time and money to rebuilding. In the end it won't be the government, either city, state, or federal, that rebuilds Detroit, it will be the people. A bright chance is here, let's use it to make Detroit even better.
Depending on what you're good it you can find a group that will be a good fit. The Detroit Mower Gang takes care of city parks, Reclaim Detroit dismantles condemned buildings, and the Detroit Community Initiative builds new homes and makes neighborhoods livable again. Find a group and get out there!
