OUR MISSION
We're a Detroit based organization focused on educating, employing, and empowering homeless individuals to create a better life for themselves and their families while producing a humanitarian product for those in need. Empowerment Plan employs and trains homeless single parents to manufacture a garment that serves as both a coat and a sleeping bag. These coats are then distributed back to those in need across the nation. We currently have a total staff of 50 and are on track to manufacture and distribute 9,000 coats this year. We distribute our coats globally and are excited to continue expanding our reach. With your support we can impact many through the jobs we create and the coats we make. #spreadthewarmth
Through training and steady employment the individuals we hire are able to elevate themselves from the cycle of poverty. Within the first few months of working with our program, everyone is able to transition from the shelter into secure and furnished housing. We focus on empowering our team with the confidence and skills needed for a more sustainable, financially stable and healthier life.
