During World War II, the original "Operation Detroit" was the parachute insertion of the Allied 82nd Airborne Division into Normandy, France on the night of June 5th, 1944.  It was a decisive battle that helped stop the advance of the Nazis in Europe.

The NEW "Operation Detroit" that will mobilize professionals from both "near" and "far" to teach, encourage and mentor High School students during the day and provide motivational and informational seminars in the evening for adults.

We all know the FACTS about Detroit. However, these FACTS don't speak to the TRUTH!

The TRUTH is that the people of Detroit are Driven, Talented and Resilient. It's upon these TRUTHS that we base Operation Detroit.

We are in conversations with CNN, Black Enterprise, Money Magazine and other national media outlets to cover this historic event.  History can not be made without committed volunteers and professionals.

The professionals that we are seeking would have at least 3 years of experience in their field and knowledge of growth opportunities.
