~Zeke of the Week~

The 'Zeke of the Week' title is appointed to those who have shown exemplary character and commitment in their community.

The Ezekiel Project is committed to positive change and promotes other leaders who reflects these values. We like to share these leaders with our Zeke family and friends whether they be organizers, volunteers, or everyday citizens making a difference in their own way!

Our Zeke of the Week is ...
Now more than ever we are realizing that each of us plays a part in each of our lives. Your health and well-being is intimately connected to my health and well-being as my health and well-being is connected to yours. We are all in this together. The problem is, due to the power structures of race and inequality and bad policy designed to favor some of us instead of all of us, some of us are experiencing the coronavirus pandemic on a much more personal level than others. 
The Ezekiel Project is launching a community hubs network program to better connect all of us to each other. We know that we are stronger together, and we have the power to become more powerful together. We are asking you to be a part of our community hub network by filling out this form to let us know where is your Saginaw community - are you in the east side, the west side, or the south side? We will be in contact soon to let you know when the first virtual meeting will be.

The Corona Virus Response Reading Program

Are you looking for a good cause during these challenging time? We are raising money for READ Association of Saginaw County and your contribution will make a huge impact, no matter what amount you donate...every little bit helps.

During this time when children are away from school, the READ Association and The Ezekiel Project are teaming up to help get books into children's hands to help with reading practice and enjoyment. This program will allow parents to request books for their children that will either be dropped off to their porches or sent by mail to their homes.

We are hoping to reach as many children as possible so if you'd like to become a volunteer please fill out the forms below:

The Fair Tax MI Campaign 

This campaign is a ballot initiative that will repeal the flat income tax rate in the state of Michigan and replace it with a graduated income tax. Due to COVID 19 this campaign has been suspended until 2022 and that we will our work on that campaign starting in 2021.
