The Henry

300 Town Center Dr.

Dearborn, MI

Join us for an unforgettable evening at The Henry - Autograph Collection, celebrating educators, community leaders, and advocates who make a difference in students’ lives.

Start the night with a cocktail hour and networking reception, followed by a powerful dinner program highlighting stories of impact, student success, and community partnership. After the program, stay and enjoy music, desserts, and a fun after-hours celebration with friends and supporters.

Funds raised directly support programs that remove barriers to learning and help students across Michigan succeed in school and beyond. The need has never been greater, and together, we can make a lasting difference!
