College Goal Sunday is designed to assist College Bound Students (and their parents) with completing their 2015-2016 FAFSA. Often times, parents are not familiar with the process or even how to use a computer. You do not have to be a trained Financial Aid representative, but you do need to be computer literate, patient, and willing to help others. If you do not have computer skills and still want to volunteer, we have a job for you, so please feel free to join us.
In order to sign up to volunteer please complete your referral on this site and/or contact Khristi Miller, Volunteer Coordinator at millerk@focushope.edu or by phone at 313-494-4407.

The event is Sunday February 8, 2015 from 1p-5p

About Focus: HOPE

Mission Statement
Recognizing the dignity and beauty of every person, we pledge intelligent and practical action to overcome racism, poverty and injustice; and to build a metropolitan community where all people may live in freedom, harmony, trust, and affection; black and white, yellow, brown, and red, from Detroit and its suburbs, of every economic status, national origin, and religious persuasion. We join in this covenant.
Description
Focus: HOPE is a human service organization. Founded in 1968 in the wake of the 1967 Detroit riots by Father Willam T. Cunningham (1930-1997) and co-founder Eleanor M. Josaitis (1931-2011), Focus: HOPE unites a multicultural community in common efforts to overcome injustice and build racial harmony. Over the years, Focus: HOPE has initiated practical solutions to the problems of hunger, economic disparity, inadequate education, and racial divisiveness. Answers can be found in Focus: HOPE's technology training programs, educational and corporate partnerships, and food programs.
