Hello friend - Hostel Detroit, which is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, exposes our guests to many of the incredible people, places, and events in Detroit right now! Since we opened in April 2011, with the help of hundreds of volunteers and donors, we've been able to host over 2,500 guests - and we want the next 2,500 to have even more education and exposure!

Our primary mission is to educate our guests about Detroit.  One of the ways we do this is through our "Ambassador" program, which pairs up a local Detroit guide with a guest / group of guests, based on interest category, language, and timing. We give our tours free of charge and have a troop of volunteers to help.  

We would like to grow this program and expand our impact.  We are having an open house fundraiser on Sunday, August 25th from 2-5PM at the Hostel (2700 Vermont, Detroit, MI), so that supporters can tour our building, talk to the board, our staff and our volunteers, and learn more about the organization.

We have found great success with limited resources - we have become an anchor business in North Corktown, we have educated guests from all over the world and have attracted national and international media attention. Please stop in for a visit next Sunday, August 25th our suggested donation is $20. 

We'll have good local music, food, and beer, plus sign-up sheets if you want to volunteer as an Ambassador or want to help other ways.
