REDFORD, MI — The need for help in the Detroit metro area has never been greater. With the slumping economy, and thousands of jobs hinging on an automotive bailout there’s a tremendous pain facing our community this holiday season. Therefore, Detroit based advertising agency, Western Creative, has cancelled their traditional company Christmas party in an effort to help the homeless in the city of Detroit.

Instead of planning an extravagant party with dinner and entertainment, the Western Creative staff will instead host a party on December 20th at the Detroit Rescue Mission for the homeless residents of Detroit. Western Creative chairman Mark Young states, “by using the money budgeted for our own Christmas party we are able to help the less fortunate without spending additional dollars.” The party will consist of a dinner, entertainment and gifts of necessities for the residents.

Rather than call attention to itself, Western Creative hopes to call attention to the great need of Detroit’s homeless this winter, and pass along this helpful idea to other companies looking for opportunities to help.
