This holiday season, join the Thrivent Member Network - Michigan Region in supporting Detroit Goodfellows, an organization dedicated to ensuring that no child is forgotten during the holidays.

For more than a century, Detroit Goodfellows has provided holiday gifts, warm clothing, books, and essential support to children and families throughout the Detroit area. From November 26 through December 10, your generosity can make an even greater impact through Thrivent's Give Day Your Way campaign.

Every gift helps Detroit Goodfellows continue its mission of bringing joy, hope, and opportunity to children who may otherwise go without during the holiday season. As an expression of our generosity, Thrivent will match $1 for every $2 donated to Detroit Goodfellows, up to $20,000.*

Whether you make a donation, share this campaign with friends and family, or both, you are helping create brighter holidays and stronger communities. Together, we can ensure that local children experience the magic of the season and know that they are cared for and valued. Make your gift today and help Detroit Goodfellows make the holidays brighter for children and families across Metro Detroit.

Please note that the fundraiser will be live November 26 - December 10.

The Thrivent Member Network - Michigan Region is proud to present an exclusive opportunity to enjoy a signature Holiday experience that has ranked in the Top Four of USA TODAY’s 10 Best Holiday Historic Home Tours for two consecutive years. Experience the magic of the holiday season at Home for the Holidays at the Edsel & Eleanor Ford House.

Guests can explore the Main Residence at their own pace, take family photos with Santa, enjoy warm concessions and themed gifts at the Mistletoe Market, and take in the beauty of the estate’s winter landscape, complete with holiday light displays and decoration throughout. Guests will enjoy live music, complimentary hot chocolate, food available for purchase at The Continental, and historical exhibits at the Visitor Center.

Throughout the evening, Thrivent will host special moments of community and connection across the estate, including a Thrivent Action Team benefitting Detroit Goodfellows in the Lakeshore Room, where attendees can participate in a meaningful generosity activity. As an expression of our generosity, Thrivent will match $1 for every $2 donated to Detroit Goodfellows, up to $20,000, allowing guests to amplify their impact during the holiday season.* More details to come.

Upon registration, please sign up for a specific house tour time. All other aspects of the event can be enjoyed before and after the house tour. Please note this is a walking event that will entail approximately one mile of self-paced walking on pavement, wood chips, gravel, and grass. Some sections are challenging for wheelchairs, strollers, and walkers.

We all want to give back, but sometimes it’s hard to know where to begin. If you’re wondering how you can make a difference, we can help. Thrivent Action Teams are a great way to make a positive impact in your community. Simply gather a team of neighbors or friends for a fundraiser, educational event or service activity.

Thrivent offers all the resources you need to get started, including up to $250 in seed money. Your team provides the passion that brings your project to life.
