Michigan Business Network

Jeffrey Mosher speaks with Julie Thomasma, CEO, Child and Family Charities, Lansing, MI. Welcome Julie, and could you share what Child and Family Charities is and its scope of services with the Michigan business community? You caught our attention as we understand Corporate donation to create The Jackson House on the former McLaren campus, what did this entail? Tell us more about the 2022 Capital Campaign Be the Light? Are you looking for more corporate giving in connection with this effort, or on an individual basis? We have a little time left, can you go into some more specifics about the eventual Jackson House? LANSING, MI – Child and Family Charities in April officially launched its 2022 capital campaign, Be the Light, to build a comprehensive, centralized campus on the former Greater Lansing McLaren property. The campaign will raise funds to transform a portion of the former hospital site on the city’s southside into a continuum-of-care hub to best meet the needs of today’s modern families. The $7 million projects received a major boost from longtime corporate partner Jackson National Life Insurance Company (Jackson®) and its associates, who donated $940,000 to underwrite the cost of The Jackson House, a dedicated home for youth who lack safe, stable housing. » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN’s YouTube: www.youtube.com/channel/UCqNX… » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/
