At the Michigan Academy of Physician Associates Fall CME Conference, students from physician assistant programs brought their superhero theme to life by collecting donations to support our community!

From diapers and food to clothing and other essential items, their generosity filled an entire box truck!

These donations will help us create essential kits and provide resources to girls, young women, and families in our community.

A huge THANK YOU to the students and everyone who contributed for showing us that superheroes don’t always wear capes but they always show up for their community.

Today, we wear purple to honor victims and stand in solidarity with survivors of domestic violence.

Tomorrow, we continue the work. Because awareness alone is not enough. We need action. We need change. And that change starts with each of us.

Will you stand with us?

Show us your purple. Share a photo in the comments and help us spread awareness.

If you or someone you know needs help, please call our crisis line at 888-234-3919.

One mile. One community. One shared commitment to showing up for our neighbors!

What an incredible day at Walk a Mile Wednesday!

AFG joined the Detroit Police Department, the Cass Tech High School Marching Band, community partners, and our neighbors for a day filled with connection, laughter, and community spirit!

From walking the neighborhood in our bright pink shirts to enjoying family-friendly activities and sharing valuable resources, the day was about more than walking a mile. It was about reminding our neighbors that we are here, we care, and we are stronger together.

Thank you to everyone who walked, volunteered, and celebrated with us!

Because community isn't just where we work. It's who we are.
