Advancing Macomb’s mission is to strengthen Macomb County, Michigan, by connecting community challenges with high-impact solutions. We achieve this by cementing partnerships between the nonprofit, public and private sectors, identifying and attracting resources to fund major projects and programs, and bringing increased visibility to Macomb County.
We work alongside Macomb County nonprofit organizations to provide them with knowledge and skill-building opportunities, platforms to connect with each other and support to be more impactful in their communities.
Through partnerships between the public and private sectors, we activate community-based projects to improve the quality of life for residents in Macomb County.
In all of our work, we partner with local businesses, nonprofits, government entities and community groups in order to pool resources, share expertise and address common challenges to achieve greater impact.
Our annual Community Engagement Summit and Summer Soirée allow stakeholders to engage more fully with Advancing Macomb's leadership and with the leadership of nonprofit organizations and Macomb County communities.
