Help Make a Difference at Our Tuesday Food Distributions!

Every 2nd & 4th Tuesday, the Care Center transforms into a bustling hub of community support through our food distribution program. We provide a welcoming space for our guests to "shop" for the groceries they need. But we can't do it without your help!

How You Can Make a Difference:

  • Prepare for our guests: Assist with setting up the food pantry, stocking shelves, and creating a warm and welcoming environment.
  • Support our shoppers: Help guests check in, navigate the pantry, andwer questions, and carry bags. Your kindness and respect can make their day a little brighter.
  • Be a part of the solution: Food insecurity affects many in our community. By volunteering you're actively helping to ensure our neighbors don't go hungry.

Mission Statement

We aim to provide transitional housing for the homeless, ignite economic growth in the community and increase quality educational and recreational activities for youth. Our organization's mission is carried out through the following programs and serves clients in the Greater Metropolitian Detroit Tri-County Area:

Description

Perfecting Community Development Corporation is a non-profit organization dedicated to the revitalization of the community. Its goal is to ignite economic growth, provide quality education, offer transitional housing for women & men and provide recreational activities for youth.

Perfecting Community Development Corporation was founded in 1992. Our first endeavor was to spawn economic development in the community by establishing a business that would employ residents of the surrounding neighborhood. Perfect Copies, a state of the art print and copy shop opened for business in 1994. Perfect Copies provided its customers with custom printing, digital color copies, advance layout & design services, computer rentals, fax services, typesetting and resume services.

Realizing the blight in the inner city, homelessness has become a capital concern in every major city in America. Perfecting Community Development Corporation devised a plan to combat this growing dilemma. The Amelia Agnes Transitional Home is the first of several transitional homes to offer women (with or without children) a clean and safe environment to begin again with dignity and respect. In addition to housing, residents continue their educational goals, secure employment and become productive citizens.
