Crain’s Detroit Business is helping its 40 Under 40 honorees raise money for their favorite charities in a Facebook contest – and several members of this year’s class are close to home.
The 40 Under 40 recognition recognizes the metro area’s high achievers. According to the business journal, they’ve launched companies and helped established ones grow, made health-care advancements, boosted community organizations and enagement, and aided veterans.
They will be recognized at MGM Grand Detroit on Nov. 19. In the meantime, you can help your favorite win $1,000 to donate to the charity of his or her choice simply by “liking” your favorite honoree’s picture on Facebook.
