Brilliant Cities

In late December, Brilliant Detroit had the honor of being recognized at the Creative Society's Business Networking for Good event! This amazing gathering shines a spotlight on the impactful work of nonprofits making a difference across metro Detroit. We are so grateful to have received a certificate of appreciation for the work we do every day to build kid success neighborhoods. Thank you to the Creative Society for bringing the community together and celebrating the good happening all around us! #BeBrilliant #brilliantcommunities #kidsuccessneighborhoods

We were grateful to have a new donor this holiday season: David Obi! David is a student at Wayne State University studying neuroscience. After learning about Brilliant Detroit, he decided to donate holiday gifts for our kiddos and start volunteering in the new year. If you love Brilliant Detroit, please share our organization with your family, friends and community. You never know if someone will want to get involved! #BeBrilliant #brilliantcommunities #kidsuccessneighborhoods

We had a blast at the Brilliant Westside Holiday Event! First time volunteers from Trinity Health came out to support the event on December 19. Hosted by the Cody Rouge, Brightmoor and Littlefield sites, the event took place at the University of Detroit Mercy in the Student Union Fountain Lounge. Even Santa stopped by! #BeBrilliant #brilliantcommunities #kidsuccessneighborhoods

We’re so excited that our founder and CEO Cindy Eggleton was named a 2025 Role Model by Alternatives For Girls! The nonprofit will be honoring all of the role models on March 6 at their 2025 Role Model Celebration. As Alternatives For Girls said, “These leaders are making a profound impact in their fields and our community, and we can’t wait to celebrate them at our biggest event of the year.” We’re so honored to be included!
