Many great things are happening at Cornerstone. We opened our new Leadership & Business High School this fall, the children are learning Chinese and Spanish, the strategic game of chess, the piano and violin, about the founding documents of our country, the basic teachings of Jesus and much more. We invite you to visit the school, come meet the children... and join our community and friends who are helping to change Detroit one child at a time.
It is because of the many great friends who support Cornerstone Schools that our mission continues. Due to the economic conditions of the city, this year the children of Cornerstone need your help more than ever. When you give, 100% of your donation goes to the Cornerstone Schools Scholarship fund where your contribution will educate a child, change a life and help renew a city for all.
