November  Plate Collections

November 50% Split Plate Collection
Each month, Northwest shares 50% of the plate collections with a local 501c3 organization. The Social Justice and Outreach team has selected the Ruth Ellis Center as our November plate collection recipient. 

Founded in 1999, Ruth Ellis Center (REC) has established a national reputation for quality and innovation in providing trauma-informed services for lesbian, gay, bi-attractional, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ+) youth, and young adults, with an emphasis on young people of color, experiencing homelessness, involved in the child welfare system, and/or experiencing barriers to health and wellbeing. 
​​
November 100% Plate Collection
Gift Cards: Southfield Emergency Needs Fund
Due to the continued pandemic, we will not be
able to directly donate food. Therefore, 100% of the plate collections during the month of November will go towards the Southfield Emergency Needs Fund to purchase gift cards to give to local Southfield families in need.
