Our Mission
Brilliant Detroit is dedicated to building kid success families and neighborhoods where families with children
0-8 have what they need to be school ready, healthy and stable. We do this by establishing and operating
homes in high need neighborhoods that offer proven programming to families and children.
We are Truly Rising, Brilliantly!
We are still on our path to 24 neighborhood hubs by 2024 in order to have population-level impact in
the city of Detroit. Propelling this growth is the brilliance of each and every Detroit neighborhood that
is always on the rise.
“There can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul
than how it treats its children.” – Nelson Mandella

Let the globe, if nothing else, say this is true:
That even as we grieved, we grew.
That even as we hurt, we hoped. RISING,
That even as we tired, we tried. B R I L L I A N T LY
That we’ll forever be tied together, victorious.
– Amanda Gorman, “The Hill We Climb”
My Brilliant Detroit Family –
From the CEO
2020 has been a year unlike any other. A year that tested us all, a year
where many of the structures put in place to protect us simply were not
enough. Much like the motto of our great city, we hoped for better things.
Our neighborhoods reached out to one another to see, support, and love.
And out of the ashes of ‘business as usual,’ we rose and are still rising.
Each of us was a part of this. Our “We’re Here for YOU” efforts grew from listening to families
in order to be responsive to their shifting needs during the pandemic. Our Brilliant Detroit
families still connected with one another, learning each other’s gifts and how those gifts
can come together for kid success. Despite the trials of the pandemic, we saw reading levels
largely stabilize, launched more neighborhood hubs, and continued on the path to population-
level change of literary statistics in Detroit. So much before us is possible as we work to ensure
a zip code will not predict a child’s future.
Much love always,
Cindy Eggleton
Co-Founder and CEO

We’re Here for YOU!
We’re not likely to forget March 13, 2020 anytime soon. When it became clear that COVID-19 was coming for Detroit,
the Brilliant staff gathered together to plan our response. Coming from a significant part of the communities we serve,
our team understood all too well what was at stake for our families. With assurances that no one would be laid off during
the pandemic, the team jumped right to work, calling families and brainstorming ways to support our communities as the
ground below us shifted. Out of that day came our “We’re Here for YOU” efforts.
In partnership with organizations across the city, we began distributions of food, learn-at-home kits, and neighborhood-
specific resource guides. We followed up with weekly phone calls to check in and see how else we could support, from
providing computers to assist with virtual school to direct deposits of nationally-sourced funding. A mother called us
looking for help with baby formula. We got her that formula and signed her up for ongoing support. To avoid a complete
disruption of our critical work, we joined with partners to bring many of our programs online.
At our 4th Annual Benefit Event, we unveiled a spoken word video entitled “We Rise from
the Ashes” by Jassmine Parks. In it, Jassmine named the pain of the COVID era and affirmed
what we can do together to rise above it. “We are each other’s harvest,” she said. “We are
each other’s business.”
CLICK TO WATCH THE VIDEO
Now this leaves out a key piece of the story: organizations can provide programs and
services to people, but it is community that is there for each other. It is community that
brought our city through the worst of COVID-19. At each of our hubs, neighbors volunteered
to support with distributions. In Dexter-Linwood, Ms. Denise Lyles brought food and supplies directly to seniors in her
neighborhood. Good deeds abounded, from simply calling to check in on others to showing up for each other in the hardest
moments of loss.
One of Brilliant Detroit’s greatest contributions to our neighborhoods is simply to create a gathering space for people
to come together and build community. This fosters the resilience needed to weather life’s harshest storms. Our ability to
combine these resilient relationships with our opportunities for education, health, and family support is what drives our
“kid success neighborhoods.” Our trusted presence in neighborhoods led to us being asked to join several citywide efforts,
and so we grew during this challenging year.
