If your looking to volunteer for a non-profit you've come to the right place. I've volunteered twice and I've feel in love with it. I actually had to remember i was volunteering seeing that i was having so much fun. Really rewarding experience and for me life changing. Looking forward to a great 2012 year with the non-profit.

I recently volunteered for the Jazzy Nights auction and wasn't quite sure what to expect. Amanda, the event coordinator, and all of the other volunteers were so great -- happy to be there, and they really felt like a family. I admittedly helped out as a way to introduce a non-profit I'm helping out with, and everyone was so eager to introduce me to the right people. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and I'm definitely excited to volunteer sometime again.

I drive through here often...I love what it stands for. I f ever someone has never been I take them there. It kills me that the city demolished some of these homes. The message is inspiring. The whole idea is inspiring. To be honest I really just want to be apart of it.

I love driving and walking through the Heidelberg Project at least once a season- because it always changes and because the weather impacts the art. Whenever I have friends come into town to visit, the Heidelberg Project is on the list of places I'm sure to take them to get a feel for Detroit. They are always amazed! Once, a friend was visiting from Sweden and I took here there. Tyree was there working on a project and asked us to help- very memorable!

Tyree, Jenenne and the Heidelberg Project are one of Detroit's teasures, one that we share with the world. The language of art surpasses all barriers and speaks volumes about life and the way we live it. The Heidelberg Project challenges each of us who engage in it to rethink our social and economical judgements. It validates our varied cultures and backgrounds and asks us to consider and rethink our priorities. It invites those of all ages and levels of understanding to see that we each have a job to do, we are important as individuals and our comments and actions do matter. Here is a project that has thoughtfully provoked and engaged a world audience...and it started with a kid, a paint brush and some paint.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
the artwork of elementary students who each became someone as artists, learning that art is a language that reaches everyone....their lives will never be the same.

Hi, I m from France and I visit Detroit as an Air France crew member in charge of the activities for the airline in Detroit. The H.P. is the first place that I had visited in D and then it s one of my favourite place around the world. Education, understanding, openmind, arts, music, colors, people, creation, improvement of man...all these things mean a lot to me. I found a lot of things in H.P. that I couldn't experienced in France in meeting people. For all these things H.P., Tyree Guyton and his works, Jenenne Whitfield and more generally Detroit changed my life and help me to keep faith in what I believe for so long!! True values, Justice and Equality. That's why I love this place and these people and I try to give it back to H.P. and Detroit. Thanks

I have been visiting Heidelberg for over ten years now and each time it's different and amazing. The last time we went I was with my eight year old daughter who was able to meet and hang out with Tyree and contribute to the project by painting. While we were there Tyree educated her about the project. She then went back and shared her story with her class and many others. It was a unique experience in which she and I will not forget. We look forward to our next visit soon!

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Maybe use some land for urban farming? Imagine Do... But you don't really need a million bucks for that just a bit of land to plant on. Would bring in more people and awareness.

The Heidelberg Project (HP) engenders in the participant/viewer an environment conducive and supportive of wonder as well as a sense of community intertwined with hopeful optimism for good and change. Throughout my life I had been aware of the HP through news reports of demolition of decrepit dwellings and of city council hearings and headlines. It was something of a background. Later on, experiencing it and moving through it allowed me to understand the polarity of reactions coming from all
