Pistons owner Tom Gores is no stranger to partnering with different organizations to improve the city of Detroit.
The Platinum Equity founder will pledge a $350,000 donation to the children at SAY Detroit, a nonprofit organization that seeks to improve the lives of Detroit’s neediest citizens through shelter, food, medical care, volunteer efforts and education.
Gores announced his generous donation during his annual call to WJR-AM host Mitch Albom's 11th annual SAY Detroit radiothon on Friday. Albom founded the radiothon in 2006 to address homelessness, healthcare access, and other charitable support to underserved communities.
“We have been working with these kids for many years now," Gores said in a statement.
