The Village99

The GRGD has allowed us to make connections and grow our organization. Many of the participants from last year were already or are now partnering organizations in West MI, helping us to multiply the # of students and families we all support and lift up in our community. Thank you for putting on such an impactful event!

We want to introduce you to The Campus by V99 in The Hallow. This collection of nonprofits will move into our 110,000 square foot building on the corner of Godfrey and Hall, and our one-stop shop for students and families in need will impact families by the thousands and be a model that could be duplicated nationally for how nonprofit communities should be working together.

What we raise goes directly back into students and families in need. Any funding raised from the GRGD will go directly into connecting struggling students and families into our partners through our Concierge Team, providing them with life-changing opportunities that move the needle and propel them into a better future. We encourage our donors to think back into their past about that one family member, teacher, coach, or organization that helped change their lives, and then realize that the V99 aims to be that very organization for families in West MI.

Luke 15: “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home."
