Broadtree’s programs teach participants to care for the world far beyond the parameters of their neighborhoods. This philosophy was put into practice by over two hundred individuals in Detroit who attended a fundraiser hosted by Broadtree supporter, Bob Aronson and by Northern Trust bank. Attendees demonstrated their passion for Broadtree’s work through their contributions and through their praise. The funds raised enable Broadtree to begin 2006 on a strong note, not only financially but also knowing that our supporters exist far beyond the parameters of the city of Chicago and that this support will help us to empower teens to have a positive impact on their communities and also their world.
